Hi: I am looking at this exact hotel. There is also a package available that includes free breakfast and 75 bucks towards dinner, (cool restaurant), and 2 free shuttle passes to some casino which I don't care about for about $160 per night weeknights. Cheers!

It is the Inn and Suites. The one to the right of Texas Roadhouse if you are in front of the restaurant. It is not the gross one just down the street! 3730 W. College Avenue

Used PRICELINE link. Got the rooms on the first try. Since there were no rebid zones I went a little higher just in case. Offered the desk clerk some free M&M's and all 3 rooms were upgraded to suites!! :)

That Holiday Inn is Crap. PRICELINE has upgraded all properties to levels that are rediculous. Cheers.

I hate this place. It is not anywhere near a 3.5 star property. I was shooting for the Residence Inn. (At 3 stars by the way!) I am going to stop bidding this zone since all properties are upgraded. Marriott's are 3 star. This piece of Shit is 3.5 star?? I hate this place, I hate this place, I hate this place!!!!!!!!!! Now Brett is going to play in this town. I QUIT!!!!!!

Got it on the first try. Next time I'll try $36.00. For priority club members, they have open bar from 4-6. What a bargain!! :) I used PRICELINE Link as always.

Got this on the first shot. Used PRICELINE link as well.

Yes I am happy. It is definately the best hotel in Madison, and right down the street from the Outback. It's all good! And 51 bucks is a nice surprise as well. Time for a drink if you don't mind!! Cheers!!

Got it on the first try. Cool. Used PRICELINE link.

Thereuare: How are you?? Who are all these folks responding to us instead of you?? Thanks!

FINALLY! I was able to win a nice hotel. NebAggie and I seem to be here on the same night. This Hotel is WAY better than Le Bourget, Park Plaza. and especially, Sofitel!!!!!!!! Sofitel offered me a free room based on a terrible experiance there. I will not ever stay there again, even for free. This Hotel is 3 star, and Le Bourget is 3.5?????????? Ya right! I used PRICELINE link of course. I hope you all do as well. CHEERS! :)

What a total joint by the way. 3 star???????? No WAY! 1.5 Star????? A stretch. What will now happen is that we will be "upgraded" to this terrible place.

Well, I started at 40, went to 45 and got it. This used to be 2.5 stars, but PRICELINE has upgraded all the joints lately. I used the PRICELINE link.

Well, I was trying to get the Residence Inn like Colfax got. I know, Park Plaza is a great hotel, however, I have been staying at the same few hotels for 3 years now. A change is nice. I also lost out on 6 bucks for the try. It may not sound like much, however, I bought 6 Corona's in Mexicao 2 weeks ago for 6 bucks. Now you feel my pain!!!!!!!!!!! :) I usede PRICELINE link as usual.

Well, I simply refused to stay at that Le Bourget Aero Suites this time. Again, I don't know why I hate that place so much. I think it might be that a hotel that is "SUPPOSEDLY" 3.5 stars might actually put ice machines on every floor. Most likely it is that a 2 star hotel should not be rated as 3, and then upgraded to 3.5. This is my first time at this hotel. 4 stars?? We shall see. I did notice that the restaurant is French, so I am off to a bad start already! The last time I was in France, I ordered "Horse Meat" without knowing it!!!!!!!!! I used the PRICELINE link in appreciation for this web site. Cheers! By the way, these hotels claiming they are MSP airport is getting rediculous. This sucker is about 12 miles away. The airport is as close to downtown Minneapolis for Heaven Sakes!!!

I got screwed bad on this deal. I should have bid $32, but I did not have time to re-bid. $40 went right through, imagine that!!! Hey, for 8 bucks, I'll skip a drink tonight. I used the PRICELINE link, as should everyone here. Last week, in a suite on a cruise ship. Tonight, in and Extended Stay. What the Hell!!!

What I hate the most is being "upgraded" to the next star level. In Minneapolis area, there are a lot of good 3 star hotels, and the new 3.5 star ones are way worse in some cases. The absolute worst thing that can happen to you in the MOA zone, is to be bidding on a 2.5 star hotel, and get upgraded to that HORRIBLE Holiday Inn at 3 stars. It is more like a 1 star.

I didn't pay jack for parking. Just jumped in and drove away as usual. :)

Well, getting back from vacation very late, I was actually hoping to get Le Bourget Aero Suites, since our car was still parked there. I got this instead. Just down the street so not to bad to relocate. What a nice hotel. I used the PRICELINE link as well.

First try was at $45.00 (I probably got screwed) :) I was shooting for the Sheraton. They have upgraded this to 3.5 stars, and in reality, it should have been downgraded. It isn't so bad, except that I always seem to get this place on the first try when I am looking for something else, and that I have stayed here so many times. The good news, we will have a free ride to the airport to head for Miami and the Cruise!! I used PRICELINE link. Let the vacation begin! thereuare, please change star level to 3.5. Thanks.

Thereuare: You are always so pleasant, polite, and truly interested. What a great combination!! A bit different from another forum I used to belong to, and got banned, for using a word "not allowed on the board". (No it was not a swear word by the way. I'll leave it at that.) Thanks for your help in saving all of us money, and your genuine best wishes. I'll toast you from the ship while drinking some BOOZE! (That nasty word!) CHEERS!!!!!

I am on a roll today. :) I started at $82 so as to avoid the raise your bid non-sense. It seems more and more that after they offer that, re-bidding does not work, as was the case last night. I used the PRICELINE link as usual. We are on the Destiny sailing 3-19-09. And Cheers again!

First try, also heading out on a cruise the next day. I used your PRICELINE link. I am going for the Singer Island Hilton later on for our 2 nights after the cruise. Cheers!

It is the one right by the mall. For eating, you walk out the front door and if you turn right, Texas Roadhouse is 100 feet. If you turn left, Applebee's is 100 feet. I turned right!

First try. I probably paid to much!
