pezpaul Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 $49/night, December 23-26, 2009. ListedComplimentary BreakfastPoolBusiness CenterLaundryHigh Speed InternetExpected the Hyatt with 3*... instead got the La Quinta, which is listed at 2.5*s (on Expedia and Tripadvisor)! When checking the rates on the La Quinta, we didn't really get a "deal" since the La Quinta is only $44/night directly from La Quinta.... Note I booked for 4 adults, so maybe that threw things off? Regardless, not a good experience.Won't be using HOTWIRE ever again. :) Link to comment

pezpaul Posted November 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thanks for the warm welcome (the boards are excellent!), and pardon my mistake when reading the Hyatt ammenities... I was just a bit put-off by the "hotwire inflation" for star ratings after hearing of so many PRICELINE successes from friends, albeit at more appropriately rated star levels. The hotel reviews are OK for the La Quinta, so that's good. In addition, I'll be attempting the Hotel Price guarantee for HOTWIRE to double my difference... we'll see if it goes through though. It's not much, but hey, it's the principle really :). Hopefully my post will at least help someone identify this in future at the least.Definitely will be using PRICELINE in the future though... not worth my time to research HOTWIRE and get a regular rate, yeesh!
