Priceline Hotel: 3* Charleston Embassy Suites

[bikepoet]

I'm bidding for a hotel in Charleston, WV for Sunday night, 6/5/11.

So far, these bids have been rejected:

43 3*

40 2.5*

34 2*

46 3*

43 2.5*

37 2*

The most recent bids I've seen were:

Priceline Charleston

and that was $44 for 2* in April.

My max will probably be $50 for 3*, $47 for 2.5*, and 44 for 2*, but I've got a couple of more days to bid.

If I can't get that, I'll probably go with the 2.5* on HOTWIRE for $55.

I'll post my results.

Congratulations on your success!

Looks like a very nice deal and savings vs. a conventionally booked room!

Glad to see you're pleased with the results and looking forward to your stay.

Thanks for consolidating my posts.

This hotel is quite nice. My wife said "finally you found a good hotel". Great location, too.

There was a manager's special happy hour from 5:30pm - 7:30pm with free drinks (the cheap ones) and bar snacks.

There was also a free buffet breakfast with made-to-order omelets from 6am-9am. Very good.

Parking was listed at $9, but actually $10, in a parking garage behind the hotel.

Oh, and the bottled water in the hotel room would be a $3 charge added to your hotel bill, so beware.

Overall, well worth the price $50+10. If I was traveling on business, this would definitely be one of my choices, even at the advertised rate of $139-159 per night.

Thanks for the tips, betterbidding and betterbidders!
