xltel Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 Here is a new one for the list. Very nice at a good price. I bid $32 in Innsbrook thinking I would get the Homestead Suites, but was offered to increase my bid by $8. There are no 2* rebids and I needed the room, so I took the offer at $40 and was very surprised to get Towneplace Suites Richmond Innsbrook a Marriott property.I stayed there this weekend and will be there the rest of the week. This property is an order of magnitude better then the Homestead and at a very good rate. They have a outdoor pool and a very minimal continental breakfast, full stove, dishwasher, full Comcast set of channels with HBO and very nice interior access rooms. The Homestead has none of these. Not sure how to get this one to come up, but I suspect a bid of $36 or $38 should get it, but the Homestead may need to be full. I bid on Thursday for a Friday check in. Talking to the front desk, they said they get a lot of business from Priceline, so there must be a way to get it to come up.Towneplace Suites Richmond InnsbrookCheck-In Date: Fri, Sep 30, 2005Check-In Time: After 03:00 PMCheck-Out Date: Fri, Oct 7, 2005Check-Out Time: 12:00 PMYour Offer Price: $40.00Number of Rooms: 1Number of Nights: 7Subtotal: $280.00Taxes & Service Fees: $48.12Total Charges: $328.12 :)
thereuare Posted October 3, 2005 Report Posted October 3, 2005 Thank you for adding your win to the board and helping to add this property to our lists.Unfortunately you're stay has already commenced, which makes it difficult for us to try and find parameters which may help in getting this property over another 2* rated hotel in the area.Hope your stay continues just as good as it strated.

xltel Posted October 3, 2005 Author Report Posted October 3, 2005 The Homestead and StudioPlus were both showing available rooms online at $40.99 per night when I booked this. But, I checked at the front desk of StudioPlus to look at a room and they said there were NO rooms available. When I told them rooms were showing online, they said it was likly due to current people that had not extended there stay as yet. Wierd. I may be in town again next week. Not sure yet, but if I am I will try and get the Towneplace Suites again.
