Hotwire Hotel: 4* Indianapolis (Downtown) Westin

[Writer]

Hotwire offered a **** for $86 on a Thursday in June (can't remember which).

Booked it the same day.

It was the Westin.

Retail price for that night was $209 according to Hotwire (Westin's site the night before said they were sold out and the cheapest I've ever seen on the Westin's site is $139 plus tax on weekends, prepaid, internet deals)

Total cost before Valet Parking was $103.96 after taxes.

Exellent deal, IMHO!

Also, I showed my Starwood Preferred card upon checking in:

1) I did not get points for my Starwood Preferred program (figured that would be the case).

2) They did give me a Starwood Peferred upgrade because they were sold out of those rooms. No problem, my room was fine.

3) I stayed on the Starwood Preferred floor.

4) They gave me a Starwood Preferred late checkout of 3pm (I asked and it was no problem).

So, while I didn't get points, I did get the Starwood Preferred treatment and saved more than $100 in the process.

Can't argue with that.
