Priceline Hotel: shuttle service?

[lily85]

I do have a question. Priceline airport area has several 2.5* hotels that don't have airport shuttle. How do I make sure the one I am going to get has shuttle service? Especially the springhill suites peabody is difficult to get to (from review) and so far away from the airport. I don't want to end up in that one because I have early flight in the morning and I don't have rental car.

Thanks.

You can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE. You need to be willing to stay at any 2.5* or higher in the zone you're bidding at.

Sounds like HOTWIRE is the better option for you. With HOTWIRE can you look for the shuttle icon that indicates that the hotel has shuttle service.

If you're trying to target a specific property then HOTWIRE can often be a better option if you're successfully able to identify it based upon the star rating and amenities shown before your purchase... the trade-off is that HOTWIRE usually costs a little more than PRICELINE, so you need to decide what is most important to you for a given stay, the lowest possible price OR the ability to take an educated guess as to the property you may receive.

Also, depending upon how early your flight is, HOTWIRE may also be a better option since you can take a guess as to the hotel you may receive, thereby ensuring that the shuttle runs at the time(s) you need, as shuttle service at some hotels is not 24/7.
