Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Minneapolis-St Paul (Bloomington West-MofA) Sheraton Bloomington

[DCowboy]

Started at $46 & had a total of 10 rebid options, incremented by $2 and won the bid at $48 :)

Curious about the taxes though is $34.52 for two rooms ($17.26 each) considered normal? Grand total for two rooms at a 3.5* 226.52!!

An update to my Priceline adventure....

I arrived at the Sheraton but unfortunately they only had the one room and not the two I had booked/paid for. However, they were very nice and accommodating. I was offered to take the one room with two double beds and they would refund my monies for both rooms for the first night (I had booked a two nights stay for two rooms), or they would put me up at a neighbouring hotel (La Quinta Inn & Suites) and also refund me for the two rooms for the first night.

We decided to take the second option. I have to say I really liked all the perks of La Quinta hotel (free wifi in the room, continental breakfast, friendly staff).

I have contacted Priceline since I was told by the Sheraton front desk their accounting department would be refunding Priceline who would in turn refund my credit card.

Further updates to come...

Nice deal, and glad to hear that everything worked out well.

Late response but just wanted to inform others, I did have the first nights charges reversed :)
