Hotwire Hotel: 3* Orlando (Airport MCO) Wingate Inn

[chen]

I began by attempting to get a 3* room with Priceline at the Orlando International Airport for 08/22/06 - 08/23/06.

My unsuccessful bidding history on Priceline is as follows:

$28

$30

$34

$38

$40

$42

$44

$46

$47

$48

$49

$50

I knew that I could get a 3* Hotwire (Wingate) for $50 so I stopped there.

By the way, the Wingate in is listed as a Best Value on Hotwire.

Here's what I settled on:

Wingate Inn Orlando International Airport (Midscale)

5750 Hazeltine National Dr.

Orlando, Florida 32822

(407) 826-5258

Check-in: Tue, Aug 22, 2006 at 4:00 PM

Check-out: Wed, Aug 23, 2006 at 11:00 AM

1 room(s) @ $50.00 per night x 1 nights $50.00

Taxes and Fees:

$12.17

Hotel Subtotal: $62.17

Note: I made sure to use the Priceline and HOTWIRE links at SAVINGSBARN.COM for all Bids.

Ps. I wasn't sure whether this post should go in the Hotwire or Priceline section. It's always confusing with these crossover bids :)
