AaronJB Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 This would be a possible match for the Kimberly.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
lisapinheiro Posted July 7, 2012 Author Report Posted July 7, 2012 When I previous booked on Hotwire The Kimberly was recommended by 95% of HOTWIRE users, in this case they're still gathering reviews for the property.
thereuare Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 It's not uncommon for the "recommended by" percentage number to change from one search to the next, as well as revert to a 'still gather reviews' message on some searches. The percent recommended figure shown by HOTWIRE is not a reliable indicator to identify hotels.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

lisapinheiro Posted July 7, 2012 Author Report Posted July 7, 2012 Thanks, I wont risk it then. Especially because The Kimberly is beeing offered on priceline express deals for $ 206 on The same date (almost 100% sure), they rank it as a 3.5 star
