Hotwire Hotel: Please help identify Fort Lauderdale hotel...

[Denise P.]

Please help identify this 3* Hotwire Fort Lauderdale hotel: Price at this posting $101 (retail $159); for mid-Apr; near beach, pool(s), bus ctr, rest, fit, laun. TA rating 3.5 & gives 2 reviews. Tried to find on TA, but unsuccessful. Took advice from one poster & did a search using "packages." According to this, it sounds like Yankee Clipper, but price seems too low. I am willing to accept any hotel, but fear Doubletree since pool is closed. FYI- from "packages" it says the Clipper is "near beach," so I think they may be wise to your site & perhaps using "near b" whether it's near or beachfront.

Talk about last-minute travel!! This would be Apr. 9-13.

As per the HOTWIRE HOTEL LIST this is a match for the Yankee Clipper so that would be our best guess. The retail price does seem low, but i've seen this new aspect of Hotwire's offerings be very off the mark before so although it is a 'caution sign' i wouldnt totally exclude this from being the Clipper (still no guarantees though).

You could also see if this same property appears for the first two nites of your stay, and then re-appears for the last 2 nites of your stay (assuming the it is the same property based upon identical star rating and amenities). If so, you could then purchase the first two nites of your stay in order to 'know' the hotel... if it is the Clipper (or some other property you're happy with) go ahead and book the remaining two nites; if not, deal with it for 2 nites and then make alternate plans for the remaining two nites of your stay. Splitting such as this will cost you a few extra dollars in fees, but it is worth it if you want a bit more conservative way to play this.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.
