I clicked on the HOTWIRE link. Still showing $112 for those dates for the 4* Boston Commons-Theatre District hotel. Also, it was recommended by 90% of Hotwire customer reviews. Any help narrowing this down?

Last week I placed a bid on PL starting at $55, then $60 the next day. Yesterday (5/10/11) I placed a new bid for $70, which was not accepted. I was given a free bid if I increased it to $90; this bid was accepted for the Sheraton Madison, as expected. The price on HW at the time was $97, likely for the same place (e.g., 3.5* downtown Madison).

I am only interested in the University/Downtown area (which is already ludicrously large). I will place another bid on priceline this evening.

I haven't booked yet. Yesterday's (5/4/11) price on hotwire for 3.5 stars = $76. Today's price on hotwire for 3.5 stars = $105. This happened the other week, too. Is it because I searched for the same dates 2 days in a row? I'm looking to try PRICELINE now.

3.5-star hotel in State Capitol - Univ. Area - Central Madison This hotel features the following amenities: Smoke Free Rooms Guest rooms at this hotel are always smoke-free. Fitness Center Guests have access to exercise equipment; an additional charge may apply. Pool(s) Property offers at least one pool area; hours and dates of operation may be seasonal. Restaurant(s) Property offers at least one restaurant on the premises; hours and days of operation may vary. Business Center Guests have access to business equipment and services; an additional charge may apply. High-Speed Internet Access Guestrooms are equipped with high-speed Internet access; an extra charge may apply. From looking at the possible hotels (and their rates from their respective websites), it looks like the Sheraton ($132 + tax), Doubletree ($135.15 + tax), or the Concourse ($209 + tax). The Hilton Manona Terrace is sold out on Sunday (from their website, and aggregate sites). I'm assuming it's the Sheraton, but yesterday's Hotwire search came up with $76 for a 3.5 star, and Sheraton's site listed their lowest rate at ($249 + tax). Any ideas?
