I called Price.line and they made good on the Best Rate Guarantee. They said they will refund the difference plus 20% within 24 hours to the card that I originally booked with.
Following up: Right now, the same room can be booked on Orbitz without a coupon for a cheaper price. In this case, I didn't really come out ahead by bidding on the room. I paid $368.20 total with the winning bid, and the total on Orbitz is $364.58.
I started at 4.5* Mag Mile-RN for $67. No dice. Added Millennium Park - Loop - Grant Park Area. Bid $75. No dice. Added 4* and $76.

Offer price: $76.00/night Number of rooms: 1 room Number of nights: 4 nights Room subtotal: $304.00 Taxes & fees: $64.20 Total charged today: $368.20 Hotel fee: $0.00 Total cost: $368.20
I need one hotel room for 2 people. I saw some 4 star rooms for around $85 or less a night in some areas in Chicago. That price range would be awesome for 12/17-12/21.
I've visted Chicago before, and would like to visit again to sight see. I plan on booking in advance in hopes of saving money. I'm concerned about cab fare to/from MDW. Our flights are going into/out of MDW. I would like to be near the city's attractions. Preferably 3-4 star room. I'd like to see the Navy Pier and Sears Tower. Might also check out the theater in the area, and see a live performance. Also interested in local food. Where is going to be the best place to look for rooms in the area?
