Holiday Inn Convention Center 1441 NE 2nd Ave.
Lowest rate on Holiday Inn website for these 3 nights is $110.
Just paid $75 per night for 5 night stay Mon 9/26>Sat 10/1/2005 thru Priceline.
Holiday Inn Seattle-near Space Needle, listed in Priceline's "downtown" section.
Needed an 18 day rental in Seattle 9/13>10/1.
Just paid $420 thru Hotwire, got a Hertz Fullsized car.
Hotwire listed a fullsize as $16.95/day, plus the usual taxes.
I'm a Hertz #1Club Gold member thru work; their website quoted the same rental at $830.
Orbitz had the cheapest as Thrifty, for $675.
My browsing both this website and also www.TOBB.com
makes me believe I wouldn't have saved much using Priceline.
Hope I'm not wrong...it's too late!
MY wife & I stayed at the Las Cruces Baymont thru hotwire in 2004 for about $35-40.
This hotel is right next door to the Best Western Mesilla Valley(we'd stayed here in 2003); and in my opinion a far better choice.
The Baymont was newer and cleaner, with a better free breakfast. Dinner should still be a 5 min drive to Old Mesilla and La Posta, an historic, cheap, and excellent restaurant.
My dates of stay were May 30-31, 2 nights.
The hotel was listed as a 3 star on Priceline, I believe.
I'd rate it a 3.5 or 4 star
I was very satisfied with the price, location, room, and service.
Had used this site to good effect 2 years ago for both Toronto and Ottawa Canada.
Just bid on priceline $38 per night for 2 night stay @ Hyatt Regency Cleveland Arcade in downtown.

Just used this board to get info on a Toronto hotel for 3 nights (Thu-Fri-Sat) this Aug 2003.
Purchased the "3.5 star Customer Favorite" for $48 US per night.
It's The Sheraton Centre Toronto Hotel, as I'd hoped.
Here's the current average-per-night rates checked just as I was using Hotwire:
sheraton.com $121.28
Expedia.com 139.51
sidestep.com 106.04
Orbitz.com 126.65
