mbstone Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 I'd like to extend my stay at a certain LAS property, and unlike PL, HW has no extend-a-stay option. You can (presumably) rebook if you get the property right -- but the property I'm in doesn't exist anymore, at least with the exact amenities. There is a property in the same location and star level that's $3 cheaper (makes sense since the original booking was for a weekend), with one less amenity ("tennis nearby") and a lower "satisfaction rate." Does HW change these factors from day to day?Update: I answered my own question, I think, by reading the HW hotel list:3* Doubletree Club Near Strip SouthAmenities: Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Golf, TennisORAmenities: Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, GolfUpdate 2: Nope, we have to move to the Silverton tomorrow (or else negotiate with the hotel we're at, and forfeit what we paid HW). My track record on cherry-picking blind-bid hotels is pretty good, so chalk it up to the law of averages. Link to comment

mbstone Posted June 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 Wanted to extend my stay at the 3* Doubletree Club -- for some reason HW does not have an extend-your-stay feature like PL does -- so I gambled and lost, in the sense I didn't get the hotel I was already in and had to move, but I won in the sense that this is a very pleasant property. Serendipity, or karma if you will.2 rooms @ $39 = $78 + $17.61 = $95.61Monday night.-----------------------------------------------3-star hotel in Near Strip South - 65% favorableThis hotel features the following amenities:Fitness CenterGuests have access to exercise equipment; an additional charge may apply.Pool(s)Property offers at least one pool area; hours and dates of operation may be seasonal.Restaurant(s)Property offers at least one restaurant on the premises; hours and days of operation may vary.http://www.betterbidding.com/index.php?showforum=114High-speed Internet AccessGuestrooms are equipped with high-speed Internet access; an extra charge may apply.Golf NearbyProperty is located within walking distance or a short drive of at least one golf course; an extra charge typically applies.

mbstone Posted June 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 All is cool here (see my 6/7/10 post to the LAS-HW forum; and my review of the Silverton, not previously reviewed here). Link to comment
