Priceline Hotel: 3.5 star Priceline express ID help

[jonguinnfromgr]

Looking at priceline express deals for detroit

The hotel I'm looking at is 3.5 stars

Downtown Detroit zone

dates are 9/28/19 - 9/30/19

Rate is $106 per night

Amenities are:

Free internet in public areas

fitness center

business center

free internet access

no smoking rooms/facilities

handicapped rooms facilities

restaurant

Looking through the list on this site, the absence of a pool here is throwing me off...the ones that match these amenities all have a pool listed, and this one doesn't.  Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

I do see this listing but i'm unable to click on it in order to obtain additional info/details... are you able to click on this offer and get to the details and/or booking pages?  (if you are could you let us know if you're on a desktop or mobile, what type of browser, etc, etc, as i've tried 3 different devices (desktop, mobile, ipad) and different browsers and am unable to click thru to get to the next page).  I am seeing a different 3.5* hotel that i can click thru but that is a different property.... no Fitness amenity shown and only a very low 5.0/10.0 rating by previous guests.

 

Also, is there something in particular you're looking for, since i'm seeing something like this thru hotwire, which for just a little more would be a much higher star rated hotel:

4.5* HOTWIRE Detroit Downtown for $130
Free Parking
Pet Friendly
Casino
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Business
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
==> best guess for htis one would be the Motor City Casino Hotel

 

Let us know regarding the click-ability of the 3.5* hotel, if any interest in this 4.5* property, and what you are looking for in a hotel and we'll take it from there.

Hello and thanks for your reply.  I continue to have no issues clicking through to booking on this hotel.  I have done this on 2 computers...both macs. an I mac, and a macbook pro.  Both computers are using the current version of Google Chrome. I just tried with Safari as well, and was again able to click all the way through to booking.

 

Thank you for your info on the possible motor city casino...I'm booking this for my wife and friends, and they are not interested in a casino atmosphere for their visit if possible.  One of her friends got a rack rate quote from Crowne plaza for around 650 for one room, 2 queens. At that point I said "I think I can do better". When I noticed the $106 for a 3.5*, I figured I could get the ladies two rooms for less than what Crowne plaza quoted them for one.

 

A couple of other tidbits that may help here...when I've loaded the booking page, priceline has had a message that said "Someone else just booked this room for $299" and this morning I saw the same blurb but this time it said $294

 

Also...I just noticed this (not an amenity, but a policy that may help ID) It says Kids stay free, but the specifically states, "1 child under 18 years stays free of charge when using existing beds" ... I noticed that a number of other hotels had kid policies, but they didn't match the "1 child" clarification.

 

In terms of "something in particular" I usually try for 3.5* or better, boutique if possible but not required. Wife and friends are late 50s early 60s...not looking to paint the town or be in a party hotel.

 

Thanks again for your assistance.

I am able to get the details of this one now:
 

3.5* Downtown Detroit (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $106/nite with:
Business Center
Restaurant
Free Internet
Fitness Center
Free Internet in public areas
==> Detroit Marriott At The Renaissance Center or the Courtyard by Marriott Detroit Downtown would be my best guesses for this one.  Given this property does not offer a pool, which the Courtyard has but the Renaissance does not, i would favor this one more likely being the Renaissance, but you should at least be prepared for either (although the Courtyard seems less likely than the Renaissance, imo)
