  1. Hi All, Using the PRICELINE links from this website, a couple weeks ago, I was bidding on a 3.5* in the Chicago area. I didn't want to pay more than $200, yet kept striking out in the downtown areas (The Loop - Grant Park and North Michigan Ave - River North). Even when I added 3*, I still struck out. I grew increasingly frustrated and needed to move on, and hastily, I added Skokie on the 3* (assuming it was one of the areas that only has 2*). So I won and got Skokie, which I didn't want. And it was the Holiday Inn Chicago North Shore Skokie. The reviews are horrible, and it was not what I wanted. For weeks, I beat myself up because I shouldn't have been bidding while in a distracted state. Anyway sorry for the long story, but the bottom line is this - I have 2 ROOMS this weekend in Skokie that I have paid for and I will NOT be using. Any other ideas for ways that at least SOMEONE can use these rooms? Is there any way to donate these rooms? I'd hate to pay for these and have them sit empty. Thanks for any suggestions. Holiday Inn Chicago North Shore Skokie 5300 West Touhy Avenue Skokie, IL 60077 Check-In Thursday, October 16, 2014 at 03:00 PM Check-Out Sunday, October 19, 2014 at 12:00 PM
  2. 9/21 - 9/22/10 Started at $42 for 2.5 * in Hadley, Northampton & Amherst. Was rejected. So then put in $45 for 2* AND added Holyoke region. Bid was accepted & received Autumn Inn in Northampton. ($57.99 with taxes). Wasn't expecting that to get accepted & I probably should've stuck to 2.5* because this place sounds very outdated (according to Trip Advisor) and doesn't even have in-room Wifi. But for the location, can't beat this price!
  3. I forgot to add this in April, but I figured it was worth posting now. I bid $43 for 2.5* in Hadley, Northampton, Holyoke (I can't remember the specifics now). Bid was accepted for $43 & got Country Inn & Suites By Carlson Holyoke. That's a pretty good price, considering it's only 2.5 miles from Northampton center, even though it's technically in Holyoke.
  4. Tried yesterday in the $70 range for 2* +, but kept getting rejected. Today tried $80 for 2* for areas - Portland West & Portland South-Scarborough. Got Fairfield Inn Portland/Maine Mall on Cummins Road in Scarborough. Priceline wanted $149 for non-bid, so I'll take it, since it's high season in this part of Maine. Noticed that this property was not on the Priceline list on this site though. Ooops, forgot the dates: this Friday 7/16 - Saturday 7/17.
  5. Mon Aug 16 - Tues Aug 17, 2010 Amenities - Fitness, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center Thought it would be the Hilton, but it was the Sheraton Atlanta - 165 Courtland Street Northeast, Atlanta, GA, 30303 it said that "75% of hotwire customers recommended this hotel" still $99 is a good deal for a 4* hotel
  6. Tried 3.5* Downtown Hartford at $65. Priceline wanted me to add $17. Didn't want to go that high. Tried on a different account at $75, and won bid. it was Marriott Downtown Hartford at 200 Columbus Blvd. I wanted this hotel, so I'm thrilled! :)
  7. Dates: 10/2/09-10/4/09 Tried $52 for 3* for Bangor-Orono. Rejected and said I could put in $67 for the same zone right away and try again. I still didn't want to pay that much, so I put in for 2.5* for $60. Said they upgraded me to 3* & won bid for $60/night at Bangor Courtyard by Marriott. I'm THRILLED! I've stayed at this hotel before paying full price and it's new, clean, and I really like it. Expedia & PRICELINE, etc. want $169/night. I used the PRICELINE link provided at this site - thanks for all of your help.
  8. Had been trying on PRICELINE for a while. Went as high as $87 for Union Square West, East & Nob Hill, but nothing. So decided to stick with HOTWIRE. Union Square West - $99 AMENITIES: Fitness Center Pool Restaurant Business Center High-Speed Internet Access I am quite pleased with getting the Hilton at 333 O'Farrell Street, even though I've heard that they charge a ridiculous amount for WiFi for their guests - oh well. Thanks for this list!
  9. $45. accepted. bid placed on 11/12 for 11/13-11/14 for 2.5 star in northampton/hadley. bid accepted and hotel was Clarion Hotel And Conference. One Atwood Drive, Northampton, Massachusetts 01060. wasn't expecting them to accept 45.00 but it worked.
