yellowdog Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post. HOTWIRE has a new interface which is not currently showing the complete set of amenities at the usual point of the search process. Please run a new search using our BiddingHelper.com tool at the top of this page. Once the search is completed, use the EASY VIEW TAB and click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing to view the complete set of amenities. Then copy and paste the amenities in a reply to this thread and we will then have a look at this offer.I need to ask, do you really consider a 2* hotel with 45% recomended by previous guests and a 2.5/5 TA rating? This isn't the best area in Tampa.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.Yellowdog. Link to comment
BrooklynFan16 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I don't really know much about Tampa. Going for a quick spring training trip. Maybe the 3* (which is prob Holiday Inn) is a better idea?But here are the full amenitiesFULL AMENITIES: Free Parking, Free Breakfast, Free Internet, Pet friendly, Airport Shuttle, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Self service laundry, Internet access, Accessible for the blind, Accessible for the deaf, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Handicapped parking, Roll-in shower Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 My guess for the 2* above would be the Comfort Inn Airport at RJ Stadium.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of help with a different HOTWIRE offer.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or the links in our Support Page should you decide to book direct.Good luck!

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Is the Comfort Inn now a 2 star? I thought it was 2.5, so thought it might be something else. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I think you're confusing two similarly named properties:2.5* Comfort Suites near Raymond James Stadium2* Comfort Inn Airport at Raymond James StadiumDoes that clarify the situation?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Yes, thank you. I didn't realize there were two in the same area with so close names.Can you confirm that you think the 3* in this same area is Holiday Inn Express?If so, I think I may go for that. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 For help with the 3* property please include the full details of that offer, including the room rate per nite and full list of amenities associated with that property.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Ended up playing around on PRICELINE using the links and accidentally won Hampton Inn Tampa-Veterans Expressway for $60/night.Didn't see that listed as an option and was really hoping for Comfort Suites so we could walk to Yankees Spring Training games.

thereuare Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Sorry you didn't receive the hotel you were hoping for, but hopefully you'll be able to make this work for your needs.Usually if you're looking for a specific location within the zone HOTWIRE can be a better option, whereas PRICELINE is usually a little cheaper but you're subject to anyhotel in the zone at the star rating (or higher) that you select.Thank you for using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding and sharing your win, helping us add this property to the Priceline Hotel List.Enjoy your stay.

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm actually trying to cancel as they booked me in a smoking room (really unacceptable) and that's all the hotel has available. This is the first time that's happened to me. Would you be able to advise on the Hotwire 3* with the amenities I listed above and confirm if you think it's the Holiday Inn Express?3/7-3/10Tampa North - Tampa Stadium area$73/nightFree ParkingFree BreakfastFree InternetPet friendlyFitness CenterPool(s)Business CenterSelf service laundryInternet accessAccessible for the blindAccessible for the deafAccessible path of travelIn-room accessibilityAccessible bathroomHandicapped parkingRoll-in shower Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 Which Holiday Inn Express, as there are at least 3 within the boundaries of this zone.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm looking for as close to Steinbrenner Field as possible. So I think I'm talking about Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Tampa Stadium Airport Area4750 North Dale Mabry Highway Tampa , Florida 33614 United States Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 That Holiday Inn Express would be a possibility... but so would the Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites Tampa Anderson Rd (actually on Corporate Lake Dr)If you're able to cancel for a refund (or if given hot Dollars and you can use on a future purchase) you can use our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com which shows hotels near almost any address in the world and makes it easy to see how much more/less it would cost to go up/down in star rating or to stay closer/further from your ideal location.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

BrooklynFan16 Posted January 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 They refunded me and I tried again. Expanded my zone to Westshore 3.5*, which seems like a better part of town anyway.Got Doubletree By Hilton Hotel Tampa Airport-Westshore for $72/night.Here is the topic for the new priceline hotel win.
