Sorry about the amenity set descriptions. I just cut and pasted. My bad. Ok, so I did have it figured correctly. That with PRICELINE you can get a cheaper price, but its a total roll of the dice as to what you get (think I saw someone wanting the Brown, and got the Marriott in another thread). With HOTWIRE you pay more, but by seeing the amenities you can make an educated guess as to what hotel it is. Also, because HOTWIRE has 4.5 stars, while PRICELINE only has 4, it appears it narrows it down a little further. It looks to me as though the only 2 4.5 star hotels in that area on HOTWIRE are the Brown and 21C. Date is July 19, only staying one night. I was thinking I would just check HOTWIRE every day for a bit to see if the price goes down at all, and if not I can always buy it at what its at. I'm thinking I'm not going to be doing PRICELINE, because I really want either the Brown or 21C. Does that sound right?

And while I'm at it, I have a couple questions, being as I've never really used PRICELINE and HOTWIRE so I'm new to it. Assuming that is the Brown. It appears from other threads that people have gotten that hotel with lower bids (like in the $70-90 range) on Priceline. But there are 3 hotels downtown that are 4* (the Brown, Seelbach, and Marriott), if I have that right. Is 21C even on Priceline? Or just HOTWIRE? And assuming this $115 rate on HOTWIRE is the Brown ... it apepars I have a choice of whether to go with that (and I assume be guaranteed the Brown or 21C for the most part) ... or bid 70-80 on PRICELINE and take my chances. Do I have that correct?

I think this looks like the Brown, compared to what dsgdcd posted on June 18. Looks the same to me. 4.5-star Hotel in Downtown Louisville This Hotel features the following amenities: Smoke Free Rooms Guest rooms at this hotel are always smoke-free.
