I have a question concerning any Resort Fees that hotels may normally charge. If you bid for a hotel on PRICELINE (or HOTWIRE) and it turns out to be one that charges a Resort Fee, are you obligated to pay that Resort Fee on top of what your bid was? How are Resort Fees being handled by the bidding sites?

I just reserved a Full Size car for Las Vegas McCarren Airport to pickup on Thursday, November 12, 2009 and return on Monday, November 16, 2009. PRICELINE accepted my bid of $17/day and then added their fees to it, which brings the effective rate including taxes and fees to $27.80/day. The assigned rental car company is Hertz. Since this is my first time EVER reserving a rental car through PRICELINE, what will happen if I show up at the Hertz rental counter to pickup the car and have a coupon for a free car class upgrade? Will Hertz honor it or not? Priceline Details: Your Offer Price: $17.00 (per day) Total Rental Days: 4 days Subtotal: $68.00 Taxes and Fees: $43.21 Total Charges: $111.21
