Think this is a pretty good deal... Staying in the area for daughter's orientation at Pitt... Also, called Priceline to apply a 5% discount (code: "SUMMER") that disappears after 2 or so retries...
Got 2 rooms; bid $71 for first room, accepted first shot. For second room, started at 65; had to go up to $70. Called hotel to get the ajoining rooms, no problem.
Bid the day before on 4/7. Got 2 rooms, called the hotel directly to arrange for connecting rooms. We were able to check-in upon arrival at 1pm no waiting. Total cost: $398.24 after 58.24 taxes/fees.
