Priceline Hotel: 2* in downtown Providence?

[dahilia]

Anyone have any idea what this might be? It allowed me to bid on it, but I bid ridiculously low. Need to find something for mid August and just trying to avoid the Raddison and actually stay downtown.

There is always the possibility that Priceline will "upgrade" your bid from a 2 or 2.5* to a 3* hotel if your bid is successful for the 3* level. Your bid is for your lowest acceptable star level. Therefore, you run the risk of being upgraded to the Radisson if you bid too high at the 2* or 2.5* level.

That being said, there is a Courtyard downtown, which may be rated a 2.5*. However, it hasn't been reported for a long time, so I wouldn't count on receiving it. If you are looking for more help, please post your dates and the most you are willing to spend (pre-taxes).
