Amenities: Airport Shuttle, Restaurant(s), Pool(s), Fitness Center, High-Speed Internet Access, Business Center, Laundry Facilities (self-service) 2 room(s) @ $46.00 per night x 2 night(s) $184.00 Taxes and fees: $32.95 Hotel Subtotal $216.95 Total Price:$216.95 This hotel has been reported in a Priceline forum as a 2.5* on PL. It would be in the "Southwest Omaha" zone on PL. The internet user's rate on choicehotels.com for this hotel and these dates was $63 for a 1Q, $79 for a 2D or 1K. Right after booking the above, I also booked a one room, one night stay for 8/20 to 8/21 thru Hotwire at the same rate and got the same hotel. I needed to book 2 rooms for a 2-night stay (Fri. & Sat.) and a 3rd room for just one of the nights (Sat.) for different members of my family but we all wanted to stay at the same hotel. That meant I couldn't use Priceline (unless I was willing to pay for a 2nd night in the 3rd room even though no one would be staying in it the first night, which I suppose I could have tried - up to $38 max per room per night - but I guess I was lazy this time). By opening separate browser windows under different user names in Windows XP I did the 2 different Hotwire searches at the same time and saw the same zone, star level, and exact same amenity list come up in both so I figured they had to be the same hotel. Also the price was the same, although this might be a less predictable indicator. This might not have worked in a larger city or a more hotel saturated zone but luckily it worked for me this time.
