Check in Nov 2, depart Nov 5

Would love the Hampton Inn University. Thanks

This property has not yet been identified, but the Hampton Inn, Country Inn and Suites and Drury Inn all seems like good fits and among the likely possibilities and would be among my best guesses.

Ended up booking a 2.5* for $42 plus tax and fees for $54.43 for one person. Breakfast, pool, internet are the three amenities. Not pleased as Travelocity Top Secret has the same deal for $36/night with lower fees. I am going to follow up with hotwire to see if they guarantee lowest rate.

Thanks

Which hotel did you book with HOTWIRE? Given that Travelocity's "Top Secret" listings are opaque, Hotwire will unfortunately not likely price match.

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

The HOTWIRE hotel booked was the Ramada Columbia -- 2.5* for $42 plus tax and fees for $54.43 for one person. Breakfast, pool, internet are the three amenities.. You were right, HOTWIRE didnt care that Travelocity Top Secret was cheaper, since I couldnt prove it without buying it from Travelocity. I asked if i bought it from Travelocity and it was much cheaper as I told them, if they would refund my HOTWIRE purchase. the answer was no. In essence, it makes their price guarantee useless. The only way to prove another opaque service is cheaper, you have to buy it from the other service. Then, even if its cheaper they will only match the difference and you have bought the hotel room twice. Oh Well.
