SCSA Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Was looking for a weekend room in Cologne for the weekend as meeting friends who are booked into the Marriot. Hotwire offered the following for £87 (approx. USD 140) for a two night stay: Free InternetPet friendlyFitness CenterRestaurant(s)Business CenterSelf service laundryInternet access With the message "LAST PERSON GOT THE TRYP WYNDHAM". "Ah perfect" I thought. Just 20 meters around the corner from the Marriott. But Hotwire baited and switched me to the Mercure Hotel Severinshof Koeln City. Mind you I got a good rate, but I would not have taken it without that bait. I know the deal, and it was always a gamble. However, I do feel burned by Hotwire (not for the first time).

thereuare Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Welcome to BetterBidding! Sorry to hear you didn't receive the hotel you were hoping for... the "Last person got ___" info is relative to the star rating and zone, NOT the specific hotel offered. In the future feel free to ask the board for help before your purchase and we will try to help you obtain more desirable results. Can you please add a reply to this thread with the dates of your stay (so this win can appear in the Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins) and the amenities HOTWIRE shows for this property when viewing your purchase history using the MY ACCOUNT link on the top right of their home page.
