I read many post on both HOTWIRE and Priceline and ended up giving it a shot on PRICELINE. I wanted a 4* in the Pike Place area for 7/5/09-7/7/09. The prices have been running around $107 today but saw where others have been paying less but with the holiday and late notice I had little doubt I would get my first offer accepted. I was figuring on the Westin, anyway, I bid $85.00 and thought we will see and it was accepted, however, it is the Edgewater. It says its Seattle's only waterfront hotel. It is a 4 star. Hoping for the best.
