Priceline Hotel: 3* Ottawa-Hull (Ottawa) Westin

[MJRBIM]

(Three-Nights)

1st Bid - Ottawa 2.5* @ $50 = Declined

2nd Bid - Added Hull 2.5* @ $55 = Declined

-- Waited 24 hours for Lock-Out to Expire --

3rd Bid - Ottawa 2.5* @ $60 = Declined with a $14 Counter-Offer

4th Bid - Added Hull 2.5* @ $65 = Accepted with a bump to the 3* Ottawa Westin

I think the Westin is a 4* - but PL is showing them as 3* now.

The fact that the Radisson and the Westin are both rated as PL 3* in the same Ottawa Downtown zone is a total head-shaker...everyone else (Expedia, etc) rates the Westin at least 4* - and I would have to agree.
