Nodge Posted February 24, 2005 Report Posted February 24, 2005 Congratulations, you got your price of $66 for a 4-star hotel room. Riverplace A Larkspur Hotel1510 Southwest Harbor Way Portland, Oregon 97201 503-228-3233Check-In Date: Wednesday, February 23, 2005 Check-Out Date: Thursday, February 24, 2005Your Offer Price: $66.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 1 Subtotal: $66.00 Taxes and Service Fees: $15.89 Total Charges: $81.89 Bid History:$51 and and got a counter offer for $17 more.$53 (Usual non-peak times Benson Hotel Priceline price) and rejected.$55 and rejected.$58 and rejected.$60 and rejected.$63 and rejected.$66 and accepted.Hotwire was offering a 3.5 star hotel (Vintage Plaza) in the same area for $68, so $66 was the highest I was planning on going with Priceline. The Riverplace hotel is on the river, making it a long walk to the downtown retail core and to the nearest light rail (MAX) station. The city is currently extending the streetcar line to stop near the Riverplace Hotel. This new streetcar line extension to Riverplace is scheduled to open on March 11, 2005. FYI, MAX and the streetcar line are different transportation systems in Portland that both meet in the downtown retail core.
