krlbrgmnn Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Posted September 22, 2005 Our stay was fine, as it has been in the past (for the most part). The facilities remain in a decent state; the upgrade may have been due to what appears to be improved/replaced room furnishings. Otherwise, I am not sure what warranted a 1/2 pt bump up in their rating, as everything looks exactly the same to me. This was definitely a solid value for that holiday wknd, as I heard people being told at the front desk there were no rooms available (which I also found true the day I booked this on HW, after I cross-checked Travelocity, Expedia, etc.) and the rates were overhead to be $99-$120/nt for those already booked, so I estimate 20%+ being saved. Again, it makes me wonder if HW buys, or receives allocation, for their partners rooms. Otherwise, I'm not sure how we got in and at that price.
thereuare Posted September 22, 2005 Report Posted September 22, 2005 Neither Priceline or Hotwire pre-purchase rooms... that act strictly on an agency basis. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
