After looking at reviews and the hotel's website, I will need to add $12 for parking. :)

They should have free parking!

Thank you for sharing your win with board.

Be thankful you're not a 'traditional' hotel gues as this room will likely have cost twice and much and you would still need to pay $12 for parking. :)

The parking charge applies to all guests (with a car) and i think more airport hotels in metro areas than not charge for parking these days.

If you're really concerned about costs you may want to ask for help before bidding for your next hotel as i believe this is a slight overbid.

Enjoy your stay.

I use Priceline frequently to book hotel stays at SeaTac the night before early morning flights. I can usually get a 3* hotel for $35 - $45/night. In my experience, all of the 3* hotels next to SeaTac (Hilton, Marriott, Doubletree, Radison) except the Coast Gateway charge for parking if you are a guest. 2* hotels a little farther away (Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn, etc.) have free parking. The Doubletree is decent. Many of the rooms are recently remodeled, and it has a 24 hour shuttle to the airport acctoss the street.
