Deal mom Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I am looking for DC hotel June 24-28. I am hoping to spend under $100/night and would love for it to be a place with free parking and near a metro station. I don't mind it being in Arlington or Alexandria if it is a near a metro. I don't mind something along the lines of a Comfort Inn quality, but would love an even nicer place. This is my first time using Priceline or Hotwire and I don't want to screw up. Can anyone help me come up with some good bids? Link to comment

HOTWIRE has also started to show a Free Parking amenity which could help you target a property that does not charge for parking.HOWEVER, the trade-off is that HOTWIRE usually costs a little more than PRICELINE.Based upon the above let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
