Priceline Hotel: 4* Houston (Energy Corridor - West) Omni Houston Hotel Westside

[doatdays]

I was originally going to just buy a room without bidding because I was looking for cheap, but with free safe parking, not too far from my brother, two beds, late checkin and a total budget of $100 for 2 nights after taxes. The Omni's great reviews caught my eye so I decided to see if I could tell which hotel it was on Priceline or Hotwire. I was pretty positive the **** Energy Corridor on hotwire was the Omni, so I decided to bid on priceline first. I put in a bid of $59 for a 4 star in the West Energy Corridor and it was accepted. Perhaps I should have tried lower! With taxes my two night stay was 146.02. A bit over my budget, but worth it to not stay in a fleabag motel.

Just curious, how do you know you will get 2 beds with Omni and not be in a king?

I don't, I'm taking a gamble for the nicer place. I will call them and see, but we have had good luck in the past getting two beds by calling the hotel after bidding.

I originally was going to not bid because I wanted all those things I listed, but I decided I'd rather risk sharing a king size bed with my sister for a couple nights then staying in a dump.
