Hi, I'm glad to hear that Sheraton is nonsmoking. I had another bid on "Comforth Inn North Shore" - Salem, Ma. I have tried to contact the hotel directly - with NO luck.

I didn't know that "However, when you Name Your Own Price, we request non-smoking rooms on all requests; however, we cannot guarantee a smoking or non-smoking room, as rooms are assigned by hotels according to availability". But that does not solve the problem: WHO to contact : HOTEL or PRICELINE. The hotel won't - priceline can't
