bretten Posted April 28, 2013 Report Posted April 28, 2013 Bid according to the winning prices given on BetterBidding.comBid $52, rejectedBid $57 (using multiple area) accepted.Using the hotel for a overnight stop over from the Philadelphia airport.Disappointed that the hotel doesn't offer a airport shuttle service.We will have to taxi the 4 miles from and back to the airport.The regular price is $156.99 for our night, according to the Holiday Inn website,so it was a considerable savings.The online review make make the hotel seem like a better stay than the other Airport hotels that are closer to the airport.The savings were about $10/night compared to an airport "shuttled" hotel from Hotwire,so after the cab fare, I figure we may end up paying about $20 more than our winning bid in total ($10 each way for the cab).Not a problem, since we will be in a seemingly "better" hotel, AND having more control over our arrival/departure in a cab, vs. a shuttle bus.Used the Betterbidding PRICELINE link for the transaction.
bretten Posted April 28, 2013 Author Report Posted April 28, 2013 Just called the hotel, and they said the fare to the airport is about $20.That adds $40 to the price of the night stay.Not a good deal from a PRICELINE perspective, but still good in comparison to their nightly rate.Hopefully this helps future Philadelphia Airport bidders.
