I used the hotel list on betterbidding prior to getting this room. From the amenities listed I thought it was the Sheraton and turned out to be correct. This forum has always been very helpful.
I used the HOTWIRE link to start searching.

I've been watching prices on HOTWIRE for a few weeks, and there hasn't been many changes. Also been bidding on PRICELINE, up to $90 for a 3* with no luck. From the info on this site I figured this hotel on HOTWIRE was the Radisson Fallsview. It had decent reviews, so I decided go ahead and reserve. Maybe I would have gotten a better price or 4* if I'd waited till closer to the trip, but I decided to book and be done with it.
Thanks for all the great info on this site. I used the HOTWIRE link when bidding.

Was bidding for 3* or greater. Started with Downtown north/south $60, added Toronto East $65 yesterday.
Today I started with Downtown North/South for $70, added Toronto East (rebid zone) for $75, bid accepted.
Used PRICELINE link on this page
First bid for 3* at $44 for Greenbay - Appleton (Appleton). Bid rejected, and counter offer was given to add $15-$59.
I rebid for $50 by adding an area (Kaukauna)
Bid accepted at:
Holiday Inn Neenah Riverwalk
123 East Wisconsin Avenue
P.O. Box 795
Neenah, Wisconsin 54957
I was surprised to receive this hotel, as I didn't notice when looking at the PRICELINE map that Neenah was included in Appleton. It's not exactly the area we wanted to be in, but I'm happy with the hotel I got and the price.
I have used this board several times and have greatly appreciated the valuable information posted. So, I decided it was time that I contribute
I used the PRICELINE link when bidding.

Started bidding a couple of days ago at $70 and increased by by $5 each time and added North Michigan Avenue - River North Area zone.
Happy with this win!
I use your site frequently when planning a trip (for both HOTWIRE and PRICELINE). It has very helpful information.
