Welcome to Betterbidding.

This would likely be the Sofitel.

Thanks Aaron! My first time checking on Betterbidding, and have never used HOTWIRE. I have to admit I get nervous not knowing exactly what hotel it is - what kind of confidence is there in the Sofitel? That one looks nice - any familiarity with the hotel? Also, are rooms on Hotwire typically the most standard ones available at the hotel? I am assuming so.

Thanks again! Really appreciate it!

The Sofitel has been previously reported to the board with this amenity set. There can always be changes and new hotels reported to the board with this amenity set, but our guess based upon information available is the Sofitel. Given the discounts, HOTWIRE and PRICELINE rooms are regular/non-upgraded rooms. Additionally, if you click on the listing to go to the detail page and scroll down, you should see a 4.5/5 tripadvisor rating (tripadvisor logo + 4.5/5 circles shaded) - so the listing does get very good reviews.
