Priceline Hotel: 3* State College (South) The Atherton

[Peter Piper]

Was surprised to get this one on a first bid as no one has reported winning it before on Priceline.

Good location, in downtown State College, - walking distance - to the main St. College Ave. with restaurants, pubs, and cafes.

Will try to write a review of it when I check out.

Please add the The Atherton to the list of Priceline hotels for State College. I believe I got it under State College - South, even though it is right smack in the middle of town.

Congratulations on your success. :)

Very nice deal for this property! Hope it will work well for your travel plans.

Thank you for letting us know about this new PRICELINE property so that we can update the site's Priceline Hotel List for the state, as well.

Thank you for sharing your result with the board and please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Enjoy your stay.

I had the first bad experience I've ever had at a three-star hotel at the Atherton. Basically, just awful customer service. I just posted a review on Trip Advisor. When it gets posted I'll put a link here.

By the way, the Price I paid on Priceline was $45, NOT $50. My mistake. I can't find any way to re-edit the original subject line.

Thank you for the follow-up, although sorry to hear that the hotel wasn't a good experience.

[Peter Piper]

This was the only bad experience I've had out of about 20 Priceline hotels. So far, that' s not a bad average.

Btw. Is there any way to suggest to PRICELINE not to include a particular hotel in their line-up?

[AaronJB]

Not really a way to suggest the hotel not be included, but what you could likely do is write and state your case that the hotel star rating was not accurate.
