Bsan1221 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Posted February 22, 2011 I apologize, I guess I was a little too excited. It was the Renaissance Hotel in Munich

Bsan1221 Posted February 22, 2011 Author Report Posted February 22, 2011 Is this Brussels or Munich?Munich
Bsan1221 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Posted February 24, 2011 I was really excited about bidding with PRICELINE for Munich, until I found that neither the hotel or the rooms have a/c. I contacted Priceline who confirmed with the hotel that no a/c was available in the rooms. I am disappointed that a four start Marriott chain hotel offers no a/c and expected that to be an amenity. PRICELINE said a/c is never guaranteed and I think that is something they should indicate in the fine print. :)
thereuare Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 You'll find many of the amenties/services in Europe aer different then what you've come to expect in the US, but i just checked online and the average high in Munich for May is 64 degree (F) and the average low is 44 degrees... unless you hit extremes i doubt you'll be needing the air conditioning. :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
Bsan1221 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Posted February 24, 2011 Thank you for the reply. It would have been nice for them to disclose that a/c is not a service or amenity to expect for a hotel especially for a 4 star hotel. The customer service reps were very kind on the phone and offered me a link with a $50.00 URL bonus. I received the link but unable to open it. I'll call tomorrow.
Bsan1221 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Posted February 24, 2011 After trying to use the link, it's bonus cash up to $50.00.
Bsan1221 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Posted February 24, 2011 Received a call from Priceline Corporate office in Houston. My initial dispute reached them. The person I spoke to was very surprised to hear that the hotel did not have a/c. They will be contacting me later this afternoon with a decision. I do appreciate that someone at PL took the time to call me to discuss my inquiry.
AaronJB Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Glad to hear that PRICELINE has responded to your concerns so far. Please keep us updated.
