Just some comments after my stay - the receptionist at check-in did not mention PRICELINE, just that the reservation had been pre-paid and offered breakfast buffet coupons for the whole duration of my stay. This was a nice surprise. I was given a room on the 3rd floor, with a partial river-view. The great thing about this room was that I could access the Wifi from the lounge area! Location of the hotel was convenient, with bus stops, the EL and restaurants within walking distance. However, the quickest way to the Magnificent Mile was to walk about 4 blocks, since the buses usually run parallel to it.
This is part 2 of my stay in Las Vegas - I managed to secure Paris for my first night.
Unsuccessful bid at $79. It's not my first choice (which would be 4.5* The Mirage in the same zone) but a reasonable price.
The final price is not too different (less than $3) compared to the BB Priceline code for PRICELINE EXPRESS Deals.
If you want to save time, you can go for the Express Deal and just use the code. I'm just doing this to procrastinate!

I tried using the Name Your Own Price but didn't succeed, even with $53, so I grabbed the Express Deal.
Price per Night:$54
Rooms:1
Nights:1
Room Subtotal:$54.00
Trip Protection:$0.00
Taxes and Fees:$13.16
Priceline Total Charges:$67.16 All prices are in USD.
Additional Mandatory Fee:$43.96
The mandatory fee looked odd because other online sources indicated the resort fee was $32 (pre-tax) but that'll be charged at the hotel rather than by Priceline.

Now, I'm going to try NYOP for the next 2 nights, where the prices shoot up for the south-side of the Strip, due to a massive convention at Manderlay Bay.
I had a hunch that this would be The Westin Chicago River North based on the Express Deals for the 4.5 star River North area.
That was already far cheaper than the other 4.5 stars, so I only bided for 4.5 stars, with lots of free rebid zones.
My last unsuccessful bid was at $82.
This would be my first visit to Chicago and I'm looking to the famous museums and the architecture!

I was looking for a short getaway to Portland and the post-holiday dates have some amazing bargains for Express Deal.
At first, I was using NYOP but couldn't get a better deal, as I have an extra discount for a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal. Very happy with this win!
