UCOProf Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 I assume it's La Quinta as Hotwire messaged: "Book soon! The last person got the La Quinta Inn & Suites Fort Worth - Lake Worth." I'm just curious if there is another potential property it might be.Thanks!

thereuare Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 3 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Pet Friendly Smoke Free Fitness Pool Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ... if this is what you're seeing my guess for this one would indeed be the La Quinta Inn and Suites Fort Worth-Lake Worth. HOWEVER, a few things to note: 1) please confirm the dates of your stay as you've listed them as 12/27-1/1 (5 nites) but the copy/paste from above shows a 6 nite stay... is your check-out Jan1 or Jan2? 2) be careful with the "Last person ____" got information as it is in reference to the last person who booked a hotel in this zone at this star rating... NOT necessarily the specific hotel offered. If you're looking at an area where there may only be one or two hotels at this star rating then you're chances are better than if you're looking at an area where there are 10+ hotels of that star rating in the zone.

UCOProf Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Posted September 25, 2014 FYI,Last night I attempted to bid on a hotel using Priceline via BiddingHelper. The process froze with a cold link once I opted to pay with Paypal. I retried a couple of times through BiddingHelper and had the same problem. Next, I went to straight to Priceline's site (not going through BiddingHelper) and went through the exact process and my bid successfully went through with Paypal. (My bid was unsuccessful.) I wanted to give a heads up on this--I would like to bid again via your BiddingHelper and use Paypal, but there seems to be a wall there. Any insights?Thanks,-Keith
thereuare Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 You can continue to search / research with BiddingHelper.com. If there is a hotel you see you want to purchase OR ready to bid, you can RIGHT CLICK and select THIS FRAME >> OPEN FRAME IN A NEW WINDOW (or NEW TAB if you prefer) You should then be able to complete your purchase using PayPal. Let us know if you have any issues with the above. What city, zones, star rating, dates and bids have you made thus far? Thanks.

UCOProf Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Posted September 25, 2014 (I apologize if I'm continuing to copy the incomplete list of amenities--I used BiddingHelper, but I'm not sure I found the link you referred to.)

UCOProf Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Posted September 25, 2014 I bid Fort Worth, Downtown, 3.5*, in $5 increments from $60 up to $80, 12/26/2014-12/31/2014, unsuccessfully.Thanks!
UCOProf Posted September 25, 2014 Author Report Posted September 25, 2014 Okay, my bad, I found the easy view tab--this property, however, wasn't listed on it so I can't add any more info.
thereuare Posted September 25, 2014 Report Posted September 25, 2014 Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread. Once you win a hotel use the 'ADD REPLY and REPORT WIN' button on the bottom right corner of the board to report the details of your purchase and the thread will automatically be moved (if necessary) to the correct section of the board. For the 4* Hot.wire offer in the Galleria - Park Central zone I'm seeing this listing thru BiddingHelper.com, but if you're not you can do the following to confirm the complete amenity set: Search HOTWIRE (or use the HOTWIRE tab at BiddingHelper.com) and...click the offeron the next page click the BOOK NOW linkin the TRIP SUMMARY box click the 'See more' link at the end of the amenitiesUsing this method below is the complete amenity set i'm seeing for this offer: Pet Friendly Boutique Indoor Pool Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Golf Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Wheelchair Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ... if this is what you're seeing, my guess for this one would be the The Le Meridien. As far as your Fort Worth bidding, the best rate i'm seeing for a 3.5* hotel in this zone thru conventional booking channels is about $150/nite, which makes your $80 bids just over half of prevailing rates... what is your maximum bid for a 3.5* hotel in this zone, or as per your Dallas request, are you flexible on location for this trip?

UCOProf Posted September 26, 2014 Author Report Posted September 26, 2014 I searched the forums and did not find references to exact amenities matches on these two properties. Any guesses?

yellowdog Posted September 26, 2014 Report Posted September 26, 2014 You also have a Hotwire Lake Worth thread running with similar dates. Please clarify. Please use the PRICELINE and hot.wire links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Yellowdog.
UCOProf Posted September 26, 2014 Author Report Posted September 26, 2014 Yes, I apologize, I'd assumed erroneously I should start a new thread for each area.
thereuare Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 We have merged all of your threads into this same thread. Given the multiple locations you're searching for, are your plans flexible or not yet confirmed? What are your needs for this trip and what will be the determining factor(s) as to which area you ultimately book?
