Yeah, that was me. This is clearly a 2-star based on amenities, it would be a stretch to call it that based on actual quality. There was mold all over the bathroom tub and despite it being in the 50s/60s outside, the room was warm and stuffy because of an ancient wall-mounted a/c system. This hotel has 2 buildings across the street from each other, and if you get put in the secondary building like I did, don't even try to park anything larger than a compact car back there. Breakfast was mediocre, but at least it's a free breakfast. The wifi was good, there's a fridge in the roo

Unsuccessfully bid up to $58 for a 3* in the Little Rock area, dropped to 2.5* and got the Hometown Hotel in Bryant.

Going to be tough to find anything <$200 at the 4* level. There's a huge concert lineup at MGM the 21st and 22nd, which is why rates are so high.

Got an email late with $10/night bonus cash with only a few hours to use it. Tried low-balling some other things and hit on Flamingo for $22 + $10. Never stayed here before, great location and no resort fee (woo!).

Yes, the exact amenities for Greektown were listed earlier in this thread.... Motor City Casino is the 4.5* on Hotwire. On Priceline, the 4* hotel is the Westin Book Cadillac (has a pool).

I inadvertently bid the airport zone. I was actually trying for the Westin in Southfield or the Book Cadillac downtown (both the only reported 4* options in their respective zones). Oops on my part, but this looks like a great place.

It's the only 4* with a casino downtown. Motor City Casino is the 4.5* hotel. MGM does not participate. Casino Smoke Free Rooms Restaurant(s) Business Center In-room accessibility

This was a 4* Hotwire win. I don't believe this property shows up on Priceline.

Rate per night: $92.00 Nights: 1 Rooms: 1 Tax recovery charges & fees: $21.37 Subtotal: $113.37 Trip total: $113.37

Don't think it's even a 4*. I believe the Westin is the only hotel in that category unless something has changed. Should be 3.5*

$42 bid, won on first try. Used BB link. Best available on Marriott site is $99.

Had $5/day in bonus cash. Was hoping for something downtown, but this will do. Hotel is currently under renovation. Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 2 Room Subtotal: $40.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $14.22 (USD) Total Room Cost: $54.22 (USD)

There's only 2 hotels in the immediate vicinity of Wayne State. Hotel St. Regis (avoid) and the Inn on Ferry Street (nice, but out of your budget). Downtown Detroit and midtown (most areas) are safe, so don't worry. Wayne State also has its own police force that do a good job. The alternative is Dearborn, which is a quick ride to Wayne State. Parking will also be free in Dearborn as opposed to a downtown hotel.

Had $7/day in bonus cash, so I actually won with an $18 bid. Quite happy with this win, though it's not a huge savings. Resort fee is annoying, but you get free airport and strip shuttles, along with wireless internet.

Probably fairly normal. I just booked a rental car in Vegas. $20 for the car ($5/day for 4 days), taxes and fees were an additional $39.
