Hi There,

85% of Hotwire Customers recommend it.

3.5 out of 5 on Tripadvisor.

Can't find a matching hotel on the BB Hotel list.

Thanks for your help! :)

My guess would be a new amenity set for the Sheraton City Centre or Sheraton University City.

I'd bet on the Sheraton as well. . . .but the 85% Hotwire recommendation throws me for a loop. I find it implausible that anyone would recommend that property. It is old and threadbare and a dive. My daughter is at UPENN and we will not stay there. We don't even bid on Priceline because we could get that property.

I'd pay the extra $40 for the four star Inn at Penn . .it's definably worth it.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

I ended up not booking through HOTWIRE, as the savings weren't that great at $103 per night (now only $95 per night), as my corporate rate was only $30 more at the Sheraton University City for 2 nights.

I ended up booking through PRICELINE and got the Sheraton at a better location (City Centre). Will post my winnings in the Priceline Forum as well.

Thanks again!

I just bid on Priceline for a 3.5 star property in the Rittenhouse Square - Business District at $75 per night and got accepted at my first offer.

Total comes to $181 for 2 nights after fees/taxes.

Priceline offers same property at $194 per night = $446 after fees/taxes.

Great savings. Very happy with this property and price. :)
