trvl3 Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 This is the Radisson Philadelphia Northeast in Trevose, virtually on the Philadelphia/Bucks County line. Total charges were $67.86.Entry and re-entry to Priceline was made under the SavingsBarn.com link.This was an instance when I was bidding for a same-day stay, and my first choice area was Horsham/Willow Grove in Priceline's Philadelphia Suburbs group. But this time, circumstances made my second choice area, way ahead of any other area in Philadelphia Suburbs, to be Trevose/Bensalem in the Philadelphia group. So although geographically these two areas are right next to each other, I couldn't combine them in the same bid....or at least I don't currently know of a way to do that......Thereuare?Anyway, after getting bids rejected at $45 for 2.5* and $39 for 2* in Horsham-Willow Grove (no free rebid areas for these, and no 3* in the area) I went over to Trevose-Bensalem and won this 3* for $53 on first bid. Actually I was surprised to get a 3* at this price as both looking at Hotwire and by the fact my $39 at Horsham was rejected (that seems to be enough to usually win the Homestead in Horsham on Saturday nights) I figured it was a high price night in the general area. Since there are some free rebids available for 3* at Trevose-Bensalem, maybe I should have started lower.
dahammer Posted October 31, 2005 Report Posted October 31, 2005 Priceline has put the Trevose-Bensalem zone in the Philadelphia area. Willow Grove is in the Philadelphia Suburbs so this area needs to be bid seperately, but is only about 15 minutes away on the PA Turnpike.
