declaration1 Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I was so worried about using Priceline for our stay this weekend in DC. I first went through all the areas right in DC adding each one at time in not particular sequence with 4 bids starting 80 then 90 then 100 and then 110. Was rejected all four times. My convern about expanding to Arlington and Crystal City areas was ending up too far from a Metro station. However, I said an little internal prayer, added Arlington and Crystal City areas lowered my bid to $60.00 per night for two rooms, and it was excepted at the Marriott Crystal Gateway. I was so glad when I read that this Hotel actually has a Metro Station inside so I do not even have to walk out of the building. Wonderful! And much less than I was going to pay had I been in the city. I have read very good reviews about this hotel. Just thought I would let folks know! :) Link to comment

That is what I had in the subject and that is the correct information. Happy Bidding! :) Link to comment

Happy Bidding! :)I edited the title of the topic based on what I read in the subject and matching the hotels in the listNot being an expert in the regions of DC the best guess I could come up with from the information supplied was the 2.5 Courtyard.Before I edit the title again, please confirm the hotel name and the priceline area as there is no match for what you've put in either Arlington or Crystal City.Thank you.Arlington4* Westin Arlington Gateway3* Holiday Inn Arlington at Ballston3* Hilton Arlington3* Hyatt Arlington3* Marriott Key Bridge3* Sheraton National REVIEW2.5* CourtyardCrystal City3* Crowne Plaza National Airport3* Doubletree at National Airport3* Hilton Crystal City3* Holiday Inn National Airport Crystal City3* Hyatt Regency3* Marriott at Reagan National Airport3* Radisson Reagan National2.5* Courtyard by Marriott Crystal City REVIEW Link to comment
