slruud Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 Rates are a bit high for this date, and had bid close to $200, then Priceline Express Deals shows up and thought I would take a gamble. They rated the FD/E hotel as 9 or more out of 10. Omni only usual Priceline hotel in this area with rating of 9 or above, so confidence was high.Best price on Omni website $328 nonrefundable...$365 refundable.I know I accessed PRICELINE via link on this site, but had a lot of windows open...hope you get credit.
BEAV Posted July 5, 2012 Report Posted July 5, 2012 Thanks for posting. I've been wondering when we'd see someone post their experience with the new Priceline Express product. And congrats on guessing this was your favorite hotel! I'm looking forward to trying out this new service myself.
slruud Posted July 5, 2012 Author Report Posted July 5, 2012 Hey BEAV....Didn't know about it til this booking. Looks like it's going to be a tough week for hotels in this area. Tried Hyatt on LMT twice and rejected both times. Anxious to see how bidding goes.

slruud Posted July 6, 2012 Author Report Posted July 6, 2012 Amenities were: Pets allowed, Restaurant, Business Center, Fitness Center.Originally had booked a free night at this Omni, but decided might be better to use our two free nights later in the year for trip to New York. Current rates are around $500.
