Priceline Hotel: 3* Saddle Brook-Teaneck (Saddle Brook-Hasbrouck Heights) Radisson

[dahammer]

Started bidding at the 3* level at $60 in the Ft. Lee Zone, but was rejected, also rejected at 2* for $55. Closed my browser and bid $65 in the Saddle Brook zone and received a counteroffer to raise my bid by $17. Closed my browser and rebid $71 by adding Ft. Lee and was successful.

Your Offer Price: $71.00

Taxes & Service Fees:$18.32

Total Charges: $89.32

this property has made some minor cosmetic improvements since my last stay, I think you might get a better deal on HOTWIRE as this is the first time I've won this property on Priceline. The online rate through Radisson was $179 for a room with a Sleep Number Bed :) I made my bids through savingsbarn.com.

How was the sleep number bed?

I wasn't really that impressed, I would much rather have a Westin/Sheraton mattress or some of the new ones that I've had at Marriott Courtyards. However, if you and your spouse differ on mattress firmness, I think its something worth trying out. If you can both agree on the same level of firmness, then I would just buy a conventional mattress. For hotels, it is a great selling feature because if a hotel has an 80% occupancy level and can charge an extra $10 per night (as does the Radisson) it will generate an extra $3000 per year per room in revenue. The mattress has two inflatable compartments framed by a soft material, to increase the firmness, just push a control button and inflate the bag.
