Welcome!

This amenity is Complimentary breakfast and is a match for Howard Johnson's, according to the Hotwire hotel list New York

Could it be Holiday Inn Express in Maspeth NY? I know it's not in the hotelo list, but not sure how updated this list is as it's missing 2* and 3* hotels which come up under search results. I think I have read somewhere that Holidayinn in Maspeth NY is booked via Hotwire as well?

Also, if you book via Hotwire, any chance of getting a refund if you cancel for wahtever reason?

On Hotwire Hotel List for LIC, NY, I see 2 Hotels with 2.5* rating: Howard Johnson & Queensboro Hotel.

Any idea which one for sure it is. They both have Complimentary breakfast, but Queensboro is Crappy place. Want to make sure as I don't want to get stuck with Queensboro when I book.

Interesting. Hotwire's description of the additional charges is broader than Expedia's, but I'll be interested to see what the Board or moderators say about this opaque bid on a similar/same hotel on the 2 sites.

janoo,

We have links on the board to both HOTWIRE and Expedia (so we're not biased as to which service you choose), but it would be appreciated if you used the requested PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board (or our Expedia link as found in our support page) to begin your future bidding, searches and travel purchases.
