I tired a 2 star for 50 since 47 was suggested by someone in response to my prior post but I was rejected. My prior bid for a 1 star was only 44 so going up to 53 was extreme but time was running out because I am leaving for Vancouver on the 12 and didn't want to not know where I would be staying once I went to Whistler. The dates for the room are 4/14/-4/15. Did I bid too much? If I had more time I would have gone to 47 and then 50 and then 53 but time was of the essence.

Thanks for the sharing your win with the rest of the board and for the new hotel to add to the zone!

I don't think going from $44 to $53 was 'extreme' (as you refer to it)... especially given the time constraints.

Can you double check your priceline confirmation screen and confirm that you were not upgraded on this bid... 1* seems low for a Best Western.

I double checked and it does say "Congratulations, you got your price of $53 for a 1-star hotel room" and then it states that the hotel is the Best Western Listel Whistler Hotel. I did find it strange that it was a one star because I thought priceline gives the Best Western as an example of a 2 star hotels but then someone told me that the Best Western in Orlando is also believed to be a 1 star. I actually think it has a better location than the Coast Whistler Hotel which is rated higher so I am glad that I got it over the 2 star Coast Whistler. I will be sure to post what staying there is like since most listel hotels and best westers are not 1 stars and I hope that the quality of service is not why it is the only 1 star in Whistler Village.

There's probably not too many that bid the 1* level so i'd warn others about thinking that this is the only 1* hotel in the area and that they will get it too.

I have seen this property rated higher so maybe the rating is simply relative to the "Whisterl Resort"... let us know your thoughts about your return.

Thanks for the follow-up.
