asc Posted December 27, 2013 Report Share Posted December 27, 2013 Haven't used priceline in a long time, but this board was very helpful in the past. I want to stay in downtown Grand Rapids tomorrow night and am trying to quickly make sense of the strategy. While looking into bidding in the area it seems the only "name your own price" 3 star possibility is Holiday Inn. It is key for me that I am actually in the center of town, and not the eastern and northern edges of zone 1. I think Holiday is also the hotel indicated in Express Deals as "3 Star Hotel in Grand Rapids Area for $78/night", with the following:Guaranteed Amenities: Free Internet Indoor Pool Free Parking Pets Allowed Restaurant Business Center Fitness Center I am actually fine with that price for the Holiday Inn, versus trying to bid lower - my main concern is establishing the identity (or possibilities) of the hotel.Any input is greatly appreciated. (and I'll certainly use relevant links to book)thanks Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 The Courtyard and Cityflats Hotel are at two other 3* hotels in this zone, but neither appears to be Pet Friendly as indicates for the property above... the Holiday Inn would be my best guess for this one as well.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

asc Posted December 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Express Deal price increased to $80 since yesterday. Link to comment
asc Posted December 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 Only had one chance to bid since it's for same day reservation. I went with $72, given the Express Deal was $80 for what is believed to be same place, and won the Holiday Inn.Better bidding was once again very helpful!thanks! Link to comment
