Dasch Posted January 3, 2011 Report Posted January 3, 2011 On Monday, December 27, I began bidding on PRICELINE (after using the BetterBidding link) for three rooms in a 3.5* hotel in BWI area. I started at $45 and got the option to re-bid for $60. Knowing that I still had several potential re-bids, I instead added areas without 3.5* hotels and increased my bid in $2 increments. I won three rooms at the BWI Hilton for $49. This was an excellent price, as the rooms generally go for more than three times that price.The hotel is brand new, the beds were great, the staff was exceptionally nice (sending off my party of five with five free bottles of water), and the pool was great for playing with kids. The pool was also manned by a life guard who was helpful when my son scraped his foot. There was free wi-fi in the lobby. Although we didn't use it, the exercise room looked nice also. We had a great stay and will definitely try to stay at this hotel again. In general, the 3.5* options at BWI provide an excellent value, particularly given their location, allowing easy access to downtown Baltimore with DC not too far away.
