djs Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 Used the PRICELINE link from this site, got Marriott for $45 on first bid (best rate on their site is $99, though that does include breakfast). Was hoping for Embassy Suites as from what I remember of staying at other Embassy Suites they all include breakfast but a Marriott is fine too. Won't be arriving until after midnight so it really doesn't matter where I stay (and the "manager's reception" wouldn't be an option at Embassy Suites). Will be out for the UMass vs. Michigan football game. With all due respect to one of our esteemed moderators I'm hoping for a repeat of the Alcorn St. game. Seats are on the 50 so should be a great trip nonetheless.Was offered to do an additional night at the same rate, but my flight out on Sunday is @6:00 AM and I already have a room booked at the DTW Westin which has it's own dedicated airport security line so I'm thinking I may want to stay there just for the ease of things even though it's more money. That one was booked directly through Westin so it can still be changed if I'm convinced otherwise.

djs Posted July 30, 2010 Author Report Posted July 30, 2010 Thanks, just checked the Westin using the link provided, unfortunately the rate now is $20 more than what I had booked.
