Priceline Hotel: 2.5* The Black Hills (Mt. Rushmore) Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites Keystone

[sodakuppi]

Started at $50 for a 2* in the mt. rushmore area, it was rejected

increased to $60 for a 2* in the mt. rushmore area and while processing the bid, priceline automatically upgraded my hotel star level to a 2.5* and gave me the holiday inn express in Keystone. The regular price at the time for this hotel on priceline was only $69.99. Not much of a savings.

By specifying 2*, we were hoping to get the 2* Mt. Rushmore's White House Resort, since they accept pets. The holiday inn express doesn't accept pets. We didn't know that priceline will automatically upgrade the star level.

Sorry to hear you received this unwanted upgrade and due to their pet policy doesn't work as well for your plans.

The star rating you select when using PRICELINE is the minimum that you're willing to accept and PRICELINE will always try to upgrade you to a higher rated property if one is available within your bid price.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and helping us add this property to the Priceline Hotel List.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Enjoy your stay.
