Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* Oakland-Eastbay (Pleasanton-San Ramon-Dublin) Holiday Inn Dublin

[JNinCA]

$54 Apr. 1st - 4th. Total price $188.

I saw a cheap 3.5* rate, even for opaque booking. I was surprised when it turned out to be the Holiday Inn Dublin (the one that was the Radisson until a remodel last year). This place is only 3* on Travelocity and was dropped to 2.5* on Priceline. I can't complain, because the rate is so wickedly cheap, but this is an older facility and even right after a remodel, this place is not 3.5*.

One thing that Hotwire lets you do that Priceline doesn't is indicate the number of people in your party. I selected 2 people, and confirmed upon check in that it was for 2 people, yet got a room with a single queen, not king bed. I checked the Holiday Inn website and only queen beds are listed now for this place.

I checked the Hotwire site again later, and the price for 3.5* Dublin/Pleasanton was higher, and now showed a choice of one bed or two, which predictably is the Four Points.

Until you see Expedia and/or Tripadvisor lower the Holiday Inn Dublin to 3*, beware when booking 3.5* Dublin/Pleasanton.
