Kind of after the fact, but I just found this site to share bidding stories. I used Priceline for a June trip to Chicago and got The Wit hotel for $70 a night. I was shocked when I got there and saw my room how nice the hotel was and great location. For $70, really?? The decor was to my taste, very modern and sharp angles... I got my free cookie at check-in and the staff througout the whole weekend was great, the bar area in the lobby and on the roof was great.. Good time and value... The same room was going for $200 on the hotel website.. Who can afford to pay regular price? Geez!
