tommywaddle Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 I first tried bidding $39 for Oakbrook & Elmurst together and was denied for 2 1/2 stars. I added Willowbrook @ $42 for 2 1/2 stars + my bid was accepted in the area I really wanted, Oak brook.Courtyard By Marriott Oakbrook Terrace 2 1/2 stars.Oakbrook - Downer's Grove6 Transam Plaza DriveOakbrook Terrace, Illinois 60181-4254 Link to comment
tommywaddle Posted August 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 I probably should have checked out HOTWIRE because I found a hotel with 3.5* in the same area for $86.95 including taxes. compared to the $101.73 i paid for this hotel. I got a hotel for a friend who wanted me to help immediately. Could have been better, but not bad. Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 Thank you for sharing your win with the board.I'm sure your friend is pleased none-the-less... still much less than s/he could have gotten anyplace else! Those that want help "immediately" usually just want a good deal, and not as concerned leaveing a nickel or two on the table, so they got what they wanted.Thanks for the new hotel to add to our lists. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
