Hotwire Hotel: ID help Portland, ME 3* hotel

[leebick]

Looking for accommodations in Portland, ME, three adults, 7/10/13-7/11/13. Hotwire came up with a 3* hotel, $81 plus tax a night, recommended by 75% of hotwire customers. Amenities include free parking, free internet, pet friendly, indoor pool, airport shuttle, on-site restaurant, fitness center, guest laundry, business center, as well as all the ADA accessibility info. Any ideas on what property this might be? This is a great price for Portland in July, but the 75% satisfaction rating makes me nervous! (and I promise to follow up this time!)

Best guess would be Howard Johnson Plaza with the addition of the Pet friendly amenity.

Please use the board's HOTWIRE link, and let us know how it goes or if you need any additional help with your stay.

Thanks for your insight. I wouldn't have thought of this property, as I don't consider any HoJo's to be a 3* property (although they ARE on the list). TripAdvisor gives it pretty good reviews but several refer to the ancient, stale cigarette smell in the rooms, even though the property is now non-smoking. My daughter and I are both very allergic to smoke, so I won't take a chance on this property. When I DO choose to book, I will use the hotel links through your site. It's well worth the effort, which is minimal, to keep BB up and running. Thanks for your help!

Glad to see we helped avoid a hotel that you wouldn't likely be happy with.

Keep us updated on your progress and let us know how we can be of further help along the way.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

If I recall correctly, we didn't get a hotel at all for this trip; I just sucked it up and drove home from the airport. It's a 2+ hour drive and I take motion sickness pills to fly, so I always consider staying over rather than driving home. OH well... ancient history now!
