[lastnightadjsavedmylife]

Did a bid of 3.5* for 59... I tried again for a bid of 39 for a 3*.

Check-In Date: Sat. April 30, 2011 <-- Dates

Check-In Time: Guaranteed late night arrival

Check-Out Date: Sun, May 1st, 2011

Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $39.00

Subtotal: $78.00

This is the first time I've used priceline and as far as I understand, adjoining rooms cannot be guaranteed. Are there any tips to ensure that the rooms are adjoining besides requesting it at the time of check-in ? (and to check in as early as possible)

Adjoinging Rooms.

We very strongly would like adjoining rooms. I searched a bit and as far as I understand, the deep hotel discounts all cannot guarantee adjoining rooms.

If it helps with the hotel selection process, anything in downtown Cleveland is suitable, except University Suites.

Also, regarding double occupancy. I've read the PRICELINE FAQ and understand that it is not guaranteed. That is ok with us. There is a group of 8 or 9 between the two rooms and don't mind if we have to cram 2 to a bed and the rest to sleep on the floor (provided the hotel provides pillows and blankets).

Call the hotel and ask. But the hotel could be unable, or unwilling, to accommodate your request.

Note that PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy, which means you may receive a room with only one bed and the hotel could assign you a room with only one bed. You could request a room with two beds, but the hotel could be unable, or unwilling, to accommodate your request... or charge an additional fee if they are willing to accommodate you request.

Enjoy your stay.
