As I posted on the North Carolina thread, we went through Better Bidding to Priceline and got a reservation at the Comfort Inn Medical Park in Durham, NC, for $40/night for 6 nights. It's for a trip this coming week. I have dealt with Priceline before and have been pleased. Got good rates at both the Millennium Hotel and the Homewood Suites in Durham. At the time we bid, about a month ago, the Homewood Suites was listed as 2.5*, and we didn't see the Comfort Inn Medical Park listed. But when our bid went in, we got the Comfort Inn. Frankly, I thought, "How bad can it be? It's a Comfort Inn. It'll probably be plain, but okay." Well, today I looked on Trip Advisor, and the reviews for this hotel are horrible. I would ordinarily take reviews with some grain of salt; however, the management itself replied to some of the comments, apologizing and acknowledging that they've had their troubles. I am heartsick. I don't want to stay there. One of the posts was a detailed report about bedbugs, though I don't see the hotel listed on the Bedbug Registry. Maybe the customer/reviewer didn't know about the Bedbug Registry. (I didn't until today.) Is there anything at all that can be done, other than throw the $240 away and stay elsewhere? I wrote to Priceline customer service, but I know they have a policy of no changes. Thanks for any help you might be able to give.
