AllCape Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Started at $70 and used free rebids to $90. At that point was given opportunity to raise bid by $22 and secure room. Closed browser and rebid at $95 - accepted.This bid was for two rooms and the Jazz festival was in town so I suppose $95 was okay.Once inside was told they did not have any king beds available (though I had called and requested) because it was a priceline bid. I was offered a $30 upgrade room (executive king suite) normally $50. I took the bait and went for the upgrade. The rooms are completely redone and quite nice. You also receive complimentary breakfast and 5-7 lounge time in a private room. It was worth it.The hotel was unique in that the pool, lobby and lounge are on the top floor. Beware their parking garage is only 6' tall and you have to park across the street if your vehicle does not fit. Link to comment
AllCape Posted July 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 As a side note:Canada no longer offers tax rebates as of March 2007. So you are no longer penalized by booking through Priceline or HOTWIRE. Link to comment
