yes, the hotel was classified as being in City Center West...my dates of stay are 5/26-5/28

Just got the Sheraton University City Hotel in Philadelphia for $83/night on Memorial Day Weekend through Hotwire so I thought I'd share. The features are exactly as listed here:

Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Business

Hope this helps :)

Wound up booking the Wyndham Aruba through a travel agent as we got a group rate, thanks :)

3* Allentown $48 was in fact the Crowne Plaza, features listed were as follows:

Shuttle, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Golf Tennis, Business Ctr

Hotwire shows 3* hotel in Allentown, PA for $48 on may 28th...the only one i saw on the list was the crowne plaza, but hotwire does not show the breakfast as an amenity, just wondering if anyone else has made a similar reservation? thanks

wound up bagging luxor for $111/night on hotwire - thanks for the tips :)

i saw the direct prices the 4* places on the strip are offering thus far, right now it looks to be between monte carlo & luxor...luxor has always looked like a cool place but like you said the location is just so so...any thoughts on monte carlo? ive heard its kinda bland

my hope was to get one of these 4* places on priceline for a little less than what the book rate is online, maybe in the $110-$130 range

edit: just a side note, since im a poker player i'm trying to stay somewhere that has its own poker room, so TI is one im avoiding

i am looking to keep it under $150/night...and no i dont want to split

I want to stay at the Wyndham as I am going down there for a wedding and that is where the ceremony will be (along with all the other guests!) - is it still the only known 4* on hotwire? thanks :)

looking for a decent place on the trip, 4* preferrably...any help would be appreciated :)

one added note: im planning a trip to vegas for labor day weekend, upon calling the aladdin i was told that they have no idea when construction will begin, that they have not been given a schedule - and this is from my vip host, so i would imagine the regular reservationists will be of no help either...i guess it's hit or miss, and like someone said previously it's really a shame they're taking such a nice place and turning it into an overgrown crappy theme restaurant

just thought id mention that the las vegas rio is now being shown as a customer favorite

i stayed at the westin a few months ago and it was a great experience...also booked it on hotwire, and without asking was given a room with a teriffic view on the 37th floor...checkin was the fastest i have ever experienced, and the staff was real nice...i go to nyc often and this is by far the best hotel ive been to
