  6. Wasn't the deal I was looking for, but I needed the room. Initial bid was 61, go an rebid offer if I increased at least $25 - so I did. Was still a better deal than any of the Hotwire or Priceline Express Deals. This is a new property (and area) for the BetterBidding PriceLine Maine Forum. As always I used the BetterBidding PRICELINE links to start my purchase! Thanks
  7. After staying in another aLoft, the difference between the two is not only the bar, but the Element has the free breakfast. aLoft does not have free breakfast. Still doesn't make much sense on the * rating.
  8. Forgot not all states are smoke free yet, they initially had us in a smoking room, but changed us to a smoke-free King room upon request. I had to pickup a cheap air mattress at Walmart for the kiddo, but still ahead $110 for the two night stay.
  9. Started at 50, got an instant rebid if I went to 68, but rather than go to 68, added Burlington and bid 60. I was hoping for at least The Element, since it has free breakfast. Alternatively I was also eyeing the Hyatt House in Burlington, which I haven't tried yet. aLoft is ok, it is a very nice property. As always I used the PRICELINE link here on BetterBidding to start my purchases.
  10. 1/2 the price of the group reservation at the Hampton Inn across the parking lot. As always, I used the HOTWIRE links on BetterBidding.com to make my purchase!
  11. 2.5-star Hotel in Dover - Durham Free Parking Free Breakfast Free Internet Indoor pool(s) Fitness Center Pool(s) Laundry Facilities (self-service) High-Speed Internet Access Guestrooms are equipped with high-speed Internet access; an extra charge may apply. In-room accessibility
  12. Huge property with at least 500 rooms. I had not seen this hotel on the Hotwire list, it does appear on the Priceline list. Amenities Airport Shuttle Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities (self-service) High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Accessible for the blind Free Parking Free Internet Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Wheelchair accessible Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking Roll-in shower 95% of Hotwire reviews recommend (not sure how they have this, probably because it is so cheap) BB wasn't much help in booking this one, but hopefully it will be added to the Hotwire list for Aurora now. As always, started my search and booking with the Better Bidding HOTWIRE link.
  13. Listed on HOTWIRE for $88, aLoft across the parking lot was $86. Bid $60 for a 3star in this zone and was offered immediate rebid if I increased to $69, done. What I got was the King Studio, huge apartment style with full kitchen and sectional seating for 6! Glad we can sleep in and take in the free breakfast! Odd that this is listed as a 3 1/2 on HOTWIRE and the aLoft is a 3. The aLoft has the bar, the Element does not. Both offer similar other amenities, identical pools, food store with a wide selection of single serving fare, hip fitness centers etc. As always started my search and bidding with BetterBidding's HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links.
  14. I am not sure how I arrived at this bid, safe to say I started lower and by adding star rating (this is now 3 stars in Priceline and not 3 1/2) and added Braintree, I arrived at the $80. Pretty sure it is $100 on HW. I was glad to land this one and not Braintree, closer to the Amtrak for a 0630 train. I have seen it cheaper, but I wasn't able to lock in at the sub $70s which are frequent here. Thanks BB - and as always I search, start and finish my bidding with the HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links on BetterBidding!
  15. BTW just a FYI, had to switch from MAC OS Chrome to MAC OS Firefox to purchase this through Hotwire. I got to the end, after putting CC info in, and hit submit where it went back to the activity (?) screen and locked up. Tried a few times with same result. Hopefully my CC didn't get charged for each attempt! Anyone else having problems with MAC OS Chrome?
  16. Amenities listed: Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) High-Speed Internet Access Accessible for the blind Accessible for the deaf Free Internet Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Handicapped parking Roll-in shower Of course I used the HOTWIRE links on BetterBidding to complete my win! Keep up the great work!
  17. Thanks for the information. Please reply with what you eventually come up with, we appear to be looking for the same dates.
  18. I tried to duplicate this deal but got the Needham Sheraton at $65 instead. The problem is Sheraton doesn't have free parking and isn't walking distance to the commuter lines. - So we will have to pay parking at the hotel and at the T station... That takes a great deal and makes it a barely acceptable deal. :)
  19. If you are cutting into the weekend, you probably won't get that rate - all the skiers will be coming into town for the weekend. We are going to a concert in Brownfield(ME) Thursday night and just need the one night to stay and drive back home for the weekend. Yes I was pretty sure the one hotel that would be listed would be the Grand Hotel, so I started at 3* to give me another chance if I needed to raise my bid. I wonder if I could have gone lower. Check out the hotwire prices for the time period you are interested in, then try to undercut them $10-20 and see what happens. FYI I got this email about an hour after I won the bid: Charles, Did you know that you can save up to 50% off published-price hotels in North Conway, NH from Feb 17 to Feb 18 when you Name Your Own Price? It's easy! Choose your travel dates, star level and area in North Conway, NH where you want to stay and then Name Your Own Price

  21. 9/24/2010 - 9/25/2010 I would love to gotten the Eastland Park Deal that was offered in August. But I went to low on Portland West - who knows I might gotten it at $75. I always start my Priceline bidding using the Betterbidding.com PRICELINE links!
