yellowdog Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Great to see that you like the site :) For the 2.5* hotel, I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post. HOTWIRE has a new interface which is not currently showing the complete set of amenities at the usual point of the search process. Please run a new search using our BiddingHelper.com tool at the top of this page. Once the search is completed, use the EASY VIEW TAB and click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing to view the complete set of amenities. Then copy and paste the amenities in a reply to this thread and we will then have a look at this offer.Thanx for using boards HOTWIRE links!Yellowdog. Link to comment

AaronJB Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Unfortunately, these two listings have not yet been ID'd/reported to the board. However, I would be very concerned about listings that get 25% and 40% approval ratings. It's an issue enough if hotels get negative reviews, but these properties have not been meeting the expectations of customers paying less (or way less) than regular rate.I'd guess the 3* MIGHT be the Skyline, but it could be something else, as well.Do you have to be in this particular area? I'm seeing more appealing possibilities in other areas, such as a 4* in MTE for $117, a 4* in the ESB area for $138 and a 3.5* in ESB for $128.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

iceboi Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 The criteria for this is sightsee and attend an event thats happening in the Midtown West Area. Because it is cold and we will be walking around i wanted the stay to be as close as possible. Link to comment
