phillyphlyer Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Booked today through the BetterBidding PRICELINE link.I bid $48 and $50 last week on priceline for a 2.5* and was rejected. Today (one day from start of travel), Hotwire had a 3 star for $65 and a 2 star for $57. I figured the 3 star was the Gateway Hotel since there wasn't a complimentary breakfast. With that info, I bid $55 for a 3 star on priceline and was rejected. Lowered it to 2.5 star and raised bid to $57 and landed the Fairfield. Total was $72 with taxes. I've never stayed here before, but it looks very nice...one of the nicer hotels in the Ames area.Again, I travel to Ames often and use Hotwire and Priceline each time. Intersting note, Priceline currently does not show any 3 star hotels in Ames and the Gateway does not appear at all in their listing. I'm wondering if you can only get the Gateway's discount rate through Hotwire now.Happy travels!
