Thank you for sharing your winning bid with the rest of the board.

This hotel was previously reported as a Boutique class property, can you please check your winning bid screen to see if you were upgraded to a boutique or if priceline has actually downgraded this hotel to a 3 star (the package product still shows this as Boutique)

Also, it appears that this was your first bid in the zone, is that the case?

Thanks! Enjoy your stay.

It is still a boutique. I got upgraded (sorry for not posting this). Also, that was my first bid.

I was actually trying for the Hyatt and was very surprised that I hit at $60 and that I got the Wyndham. I already have a few rooms at the Hyatt and I'm trying to get one for a friend. I think that the Hyatt rooms may be all gone by now.

I'm also trying to bid on a room for 4/28 and I would like to get the Hyatt. Any ideas on how to do this without getting a different hotel?

Not really, but please post your inquiry about a room on 4/28 as a NEW TOPIC and we'll take a closer look at the zone and alternatives.
