thereuare Posted March 3, 2017 Report Posted March 3, 2017 Welcome (officially) to BetterBidding... we've been waiting for your first post! 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 search using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com tool. (always use this method for your searches/purchases to ensure you're seeing the complete amenity set and for an easy comparison of PRICELINE vs. HOTWIRE, as well as to use our new IS THIS A GOOD PRICE feature). 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 (including any accessible amenities) then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 3.5 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: 3.5* Downtown Tampa for $76.00 Free Internet Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf Blind Accessible Room Accessible Wheelchair Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> if thi sis what you're seeing, the Sheraton Tampa Riverwalk would be my best guess for this one If you are intererested in this property i would have a look at this offer (confirm your dates on the landing page of the link provided below): 3.5* Downtown - Historic Ybor - Harbour Island for $75 Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Free Internet Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities ==> best guess here would also be the Sheraton, but this one would be cheaper when using the extra discount offered thru the link in my signature Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

dswheaven Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Posted March 4, 2017 I will check it out and provide an update. I'm also looking at a 3* in the Treasure Island area but I will post it seperately. Following your detailed directions of course.
thereuare Posted March 4, 2017 Report Posted March 4, 2017 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 upper right corner of the page to edit the topic title to reflect your win and to provide the details of your purchase. This helps keep the board better organized by reducing the number of unresolved threads that don't have any follow-up or conclusion.

dswheaven Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Posted March 4, 2017 Ok, I must be doing something wrong. I followed the directions but, I did not see a green tab. I tried on my mobile and laptop.
dswheaven Posted March 4, 2017 Author Report Posted March 4, 2017 3* Tampa, FL Treasure Island 04/2/17 - 04/6/17, 144.00 per night, Complimentary Free breakfastFree InternetFree parking Amenities Business centerFitness centerPool(s)Self-service laundrySmoke-free rooms There is a 11.00 resort fee. Sorry, I tried to pull the extended list. Can't seem to find it. Regular price 235.00, Trip Advisor 4 out of 5 with 501 - 1000 reviews. It's a Hotwire favorite 9 out of 10 524 reviews.
thereuare Posted March 4, 2017 Report Posted March 4, 2017 In the EASY VIEW tab of BiddingHelper.com, to the right of the RED button with the price in it... do you see: Button 1: IS THIS A GOOD PRICE? Button 2: FULL AMENITIES CLICK HERE ... but would you want to pay more than twice as much for a hotel that is a half star rating lower? (there are instances where you may like the 3* better than the 3.5*... but would you be willing to pay 2x for it?)

thereuare Posted March 5, 2017 Report Posted March 5, 2017 If the guessed Sheraton doesn't work for your needs let us know more about what you are looking for in a hotel (as well as what about the Sheraton you don't like) and your maximum budget (per nite before fees/taxes) and we will see if we can come up with anything else that will work for your plans.
