Priceline Hotel: 2.5* Scranton - Poconos (Hazleton - Drums) Holiday Inn Express Hotel And Suites Drums-Hazelton

[Sea Turtle]

I was only interested in 2.5* and I had plenty of time to make bids so everytime I was denied, I simply waited until another day to bid again. I did not add any stars or areas.

Also, the first three times I entered a bid I went through the PRICELINE link here on BB just like I have many times in the past. However, on my last bid when I was using PL Reward Dollars, the link would not work for me. I tried a couple of times going through BB but it would not let me access My Rewards. I know it can be done because I've accessed it before. Perhaps PL was having a problem because they did send out an invalid coupon the day prior. Anyway, I did try BB!!

Mar 31 $52 Denied

Apr 04 $55 Denied

Apr 26 $60 Denied

May 02 $65 plus $7 Priceline Reward Dollars - Accepted - TOTAL with tax/fees = $80.59

Regular PL price is $99 plus tax/fees so I'm good with my win/savings of $30! :)
