Likes There's Logo

Thereuare is the pro on this, so I please take this all with a HUGE grain of salt. But my guess is that the hotel is the DoubleTree, not the Sheraton. I believe Sheraton tends to display a 'Golf nearby' logo. But I've also noticed that things change. For instance, Hotwire is not showing retail prices or TripAdvisor review scores today, but they did a few days ago. Anyway, the reason I say this is because I was looking for a night the in the same time frame as you, and I consistently got nights in the $125 - $130 range for a 4* hotel. Then one day it 'magically' dropped to $80, but the amenities also changed. So I booked that new hotel, and it was the Sheraton on the Falls. But when I checked later, the amenities went back to what they were before, and the prices went back up, which makes me think the hotel is different than the Sheraton. But that's my $.02, and I'm sure thereuare will be right way more often than me!

Now I'm nervous! If the room is habitable, we should be OK, because we mainly plan just to sleep there. On upgrades -- do they usually comp that, or say "For an extra $50, you can have cityview or fallsview or something?" I'm Gold at Sheraton, but I realize that's not supposed to be worth bupkis when booking through Hotwire.

I'd been browsing Hotwire for a a few days, and the 4* prices were around $130. I'm fairly sure the offered hotel was a DoubleTree, based upon amenities and the one customer review that was reported. Then today I was offered a 4* room for $80 ('retail' of $142.96), so I took it. It was a different hotel than what I originally shopped for, I believe, because the amenities seemed a bit different (I don't think Doubletree had 'golf nearby' as an amenity), and the average tripadvisor review for the hotel was 3.5 instead of 4, like the previously offered 4* hotel, and because no review quote was listed (what I believe was the other hotel did have an actual review quoted). The amenities for what ended up being the Sheraton on the Falls were: Restaurants Fitness Center High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Pool(s) Spa Services Children's Activity Program Business Center Some online reviews list rooms at this hotel with 'no view'; I imagine that's what we got. But for $80, I can't complain. Cheapest price I saw at Hotels.com was $200. I checked Hotwire later today, and for what looks like the same hotel, the price is now $112. Thanks, BetterBidding!
