KatiesMom Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 Needed a one-night stay for 2/9/06 for two of us, hoping to stay around $50. Thought I would give 4* Cambridge-Brookline a whirl, hoping for the Marlowe (it seemed interesting)...Bid $48 for 4* Cambridge Brookline, rejected, added Medford bid $53 rejected.Decided to go the 3* route.Closed browser, re-opened.Bid $45 for 3* Cambridge Brookline and Downtown Boston-Charlestown, rejected, added South Boston, Bid $52, accepted for:Doubletree Hotel Boston Downtown. I called to confirm the reservation and priceline had booked us a king no-smoking which is what I would have wanted anyway.This works very well for me as I am going to a convention the next day at the Boston Park Plaza and this hotel is only a few blocks away. My company is putting us up at the Park Plaza for the rest of the trip. To support this site, I bid through savingsbarn.com.

KatiesMom Posted February 12, 2006 Author Report Posted February 12, 2006 Just to let folks know, had a good experience at this hotel and I wrote a review on this site. Also spent time at the Boston Park Plaza this weekend and wrote a review about that as well.
