DCowboy Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 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!! Link to comment

DCowboy Posted September 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 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...
