Keoni Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 I don't see where this property has been reported before so I was surprised with the win.I checked Priceline's Hotel Review for this Holiday Inn and the returns were discussing aTravelodge. Most recent review was from 2005 so I don't know if there is an incorrect linkor the hotel changed chains but the reports were very negative for the Travelodge.I will report after my stay.Regards, Keoni :) Link to comment

runNgun Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 they spent $12,000,000 in renovations before becoming a Holiday Inn so don't worry. Check out the pictures at holidayinn.com and you'll feel better. Link to comment
las2ams Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 As I wrote elsewhere, check this hotel's rates before bidding.For your dates, the 17 & 18 are available for $29.99. The 19, 20, 21 & 22 are available for $59.95, with one of the nights free. (I'm getting these rates from the 'specials & packages' page.) That yields a total of $271.15, including tax (but not including the nightly "resort fee.") You overspent $92.72!!! Just last week this was the "mystery" hotel on another popular booking website with a nightly rate of $29 through the end of December.Given this hotel's agressive pricing in the past, Priceline's 3* DWV has become essentially useless (unless bookings are strong & rates rocket upward).edit by thereuare: removed broken links Link to comment
