Priceline Hotel: 3* Houston (Brookhollow) Sheraton Brookhollow

[zebazga]

Hi. Although I've used Priceline for airlines, never hotel. I need a hotel in for 7/21 only in Houston in one of three following areas and I'd love to have a hotel that provides a way to check email (I won't have my own computer with me):

Houston NW

Brookhollow

Cyfair.

I noticed there aren't many bid results for Cyfair or Brookhollow. Is there a reason for this? Bad areas to stay?

Reviewing the hotel lists it looked like Priceline had slightly better hotels than Hotwire, but I don't really care which I use. There didn't seem to be as many bid results for Hotwire.

All advice would be greatly appreciated. My absolute top budget for taxes/fees/everything is $65 but I'd love to be closer to $25-35.

For now I'll be reading priceline site for how many bids I get.

Thanks!

Entered a bid for Houston Brookhollow area for a 3* at $34. My first bid was accepted so I guess I started to high.

Taxes and service fees were $12.89.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

We don't see much bidding in this area as it's not a local 'hot spot'... but you see this hotel was already on the list! :)

Thanks for the post and enjoy your stay.

Was surprised to get it so low when previous price posted was a couple of years old.

The hotel was nice enough, but they're remodelling. They're currently working on floors 3-5 and hope to have those done the end of August. Then they'll be working on 5-8. I think they said they want to have all the work done before end of year.

The rooms could use updating. There was still a lot of noise on my floor after the workers are supposed to stop, so they bumped me up to the 9th floor. Just something to be aware of.
