smarttraveler Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I purchased a 3* hotel for my parents at a very good rate of $53 (Residence Inn by Marriott - Vancouver, WA - this is where they usually stay for $63 - $99/nite via Expedia). I checked again for the next weekend, and the price went up to $79! I check again 1 minute later and the price is now $77. Is this a common HW practice? Do they not want our business back? Also, it was very tricky that they had Residence Inn as 3* which has a kitchenette, but they don't mention the kitchenette under amenities. They had another hotel at 2* which mentioned a kitchenette, at a higher price. I'm pretty sure the Residence Inn is the only hotel in Vancouver with a kitchen, so this is very bizarre.I will check Hotwire daily to see if they decrease the rates. I tried deleting my cookies, but that did not help bring the price down. sigh.-ST Link to comment
