Hi all, I used the HOTWIRE link on the main page and got a 4 star hotel in Monterey, CA for check in 10/7 and check out 10/8. The hotel is recommended in 90% of Hotwire customer reviews and has the following amenities: Fitness Center Restaurant(s) Business Center Golf Nearby High Speed Internet Tennis Nearby Price is showing $149. Any ideas as to which hotel this may be? Thanks!

Hi everyone - I've never used priceline before, but I feel pretty confident bidding for a 5* strip north hotel in Las Vegas, since it looks like the only hotels that come up are Wynn, Venetian and Palazzo. I really don't want the Trump, so I just want to ask you all whether there is any chance I would get the Trump if I bid for a 5* Strip North? Thank you!

Awesome!! I'm jealous! I got the Westin (sorry, just saw your post from yesterday). Still happy to get the Westin...but I called the hotel to request a room on a high floor and they said they can't access my reservation and won't be able to do anything until I check in. Hope it's ok. Congrats, you lucked out!!!!

This keeps changing on me in hotwire. Please let me know if you can help distinguish between the two: 4* Pike Place Downtown 90% customer reviews Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant High Speed Internet 4* Pike Place Downtown 85% Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant High Speed It continiously fluctuates between the 90% one and 85% one. Please help! I really don't want the Renaissance, which is why I haven't booked already. They are each at $100 for 10/8-10/10

No, looks like the Business icon is gone now. Still says 90%.

How was your stay? Did the Westin give you a nice room? Just wanted to see other people's experiences at the Westin via Hotwire before I book....read some horror stories about rooms offered. :)

Thanks, I will definitely use the HOTWIRE links through the site. It actually just went down to $100. Dates are 10/8-10/10 Downtown-Pike Place area Smoke Free Fitness Center Pool Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Recommended 90% There's a new one in Downtown Pike Place for $89 at 3/12 stars but I don't think I'm interested in that. Smoke-Free Fitness Center Restuarant Business Center High-Speed Internet Access 85% Ultimately, any info as to what rooms are actually booked under Hotwire is what I am really looking for. Are they good rooms or are they the "lesser" rooms? I need one King bed but could be flexible if needed.

Hey everyone, First off, this board is so helpful! So glad I found it. I'm heading to Seattle (want to stay Downtown/Pike Place) in the beginning of October and Hotwire has a deal for $105/night, which I presume to be the Westin based on the amenities and what others have recently won, etc. I am between bidding and getting that hotel, or just going through the Sheraton directly and booking that at $145. Part of me is worried about taking the Hotwire gamble. This is where you guys come in! Need some Hotwire advice. Is it true that by booking through Hotwire you get the "lower end" rooms, i.e. the ones that aren't renovated, etc? Also, how do I pick the bed I want (King bed or two doubles, etc.)? Lastly, if I book through Hotwire, and it ends up being the Westin, could I later call the Westin about the room I'm getting and request a view, etc? Any advice you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. Any info about rooms you got, etc. would be awesome! Thanks!!
