CFW Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 Plus $14.33 taxes for total of $69.33. Started at $40. Utilized zones for Boiling Springs and Aurora since they didn't have 3 1/2 star hotels. Day before, received suggestion I up my bid to $63 or $68 (don't remember) for a better chance of winning. I waited till morning of, submitted bid for $55 and won. Called hotel direct and confirmed King bed. Only hitch- When we arrived in room, discovered it was a smoking room (seemed very strong for non-smokers). Was told hotel booked so no place to move us and that Priceline had put it through as a smoking request. I never thought to ask the hotel before hand. This was our first time with Price.line so it will be a lessoned learned.
AaronJB Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 Congrats on your success. :) Great rate for this property, although very sorry to hear that you wound up in a smoking room. Usually it's not an issue, although unfortunately it does happen on rare occasions. For future stays, you may want to try calling in advance to request a non-smoking room. Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.
