I'm trying to book the Radisson by USC for two nights next week, the July 12 -14th. If I hotwire for one night, the 12th only, I get a $75 rate with fitness center, pools, restaurant, business center and high-speed internet. If I try for 12-13th or just 13th, I get $106 rate with smoke-free, restaurant, business center and high-speed internet. I'm confused since neither of these match the radisson exactly based on other posting (Fitness, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, Laundry Facilities, High Speed Internet, Golf Nearby & Tennis Nearby) and also coming up with two different lists since the radisson is the only hotwire 3* listed for this geography.

Any and all advice is appreicate since i really want to be across the street from USC but really don't want to do the 2.5* which seems to be the vagabond inn and that has two reviews that literally say they have bed bugs. I'm not too picky, but bedbugs really won't do.

Thanks in advance,

Barry

I get the same hotel whether i search for 7/12-7/14 or 7/13-7/14... the 3* with Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Hi-Speed Internet, Business

This is a match for the Wilshire Hotel so that would be my best guess for this one.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. Try 7/12- 7/13 and i think you'll get another property that I'm hoping is the RAdisson. And today, it comes up when you do 7/12 - 7/14... $75

So without - laundry, golf and tennis nearby - you're pretty certain it's not the radisson? i just don't see any other mention of any other 3* in the midwilshire - usc on the site so i'm curious why you think it's the wilshire hotel?

The Wilshire Hotel hasn't been reported here before and that's why it's not in the Hotel List. If someone reports getting the Wilshire we'll add it.

The 3* on 7/12-7/14 for $75 looks like Wiilshire to me too. If you click CONTINUE under the price the next screen shows the hotel in question has a 3/5 TripAdvisor rating. Wilshire Hotel is 3/5 on TA, and Radisson is 2.5/5, so Wilshire looks like a better match.

I only see one bedbug report at Vagabond on TripAdvisor and it has all the signs of being a bogus post. It was posted by someone who registered, posted one time, then never returned.

Bedbugs exist and i'm not minimizing them, but in my opinion the great majority of bedbug reports on TripAdvisor are untrue, posted as revenge or payback for something else unrelated. Anyone can post anything on the internet. If a hotel really has bedbugs you'll probably see multiple reports on TripAdvisor and you'll see reports from people with high post counts, and therefore credibility--not just from the "one post wonders".

If you're concerned about bedbugs you should check your mattresses and bedding wherever you stay---whether it's Vagabond Inn or Ritz-Carlton.
