eshspres Posted October 2, 2007 Report Posted October 2, 2007 I am looking for a 3* or 2.5* hotel in Columbia for 10/29-11/1. I would love to pay $50 or less a night. Hotwire has a 2* suite for $36, a 1* for $33, and a 2.5* for $83. The 2* is appealing if it is either the Candlewood or Baymont, but I'm worried it might be Extended Stay and I'm not a huge fan of ESA. Any advice would be great.

eshspres Posted October 4, 2007 Author Report Posted October 4, 2007 Yes, my plans are 99% firm. If I make the trip it will definitely be on those dates.On Hotwire the amenities are as follows:2* - Suite, Laundry1* - Pool, Restaurant, High-Speed Internet, Golf Nearby2.5* - Fitness Center, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, Laundry, High-Speed Internet, Golf NearbyIt also looks like the prices for each went down a few bucks ($35, $32, $79, respectively). Also, for what it's worth, I went to undergraduate in Columbia so I know the area and the hotels VERY well.

eshspres Posted October 4, 2007 Author Report Posted October 4, 2007 I actually just got confirmation late last night that I will definitely be making the trip.
eshspres Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Posted October 8, 2007 Any suggestions out there? I need to get to making these reservations soon. Thanks in advance.
thereuare Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 None of the above have been identified, if i were to take some possible guesses... the 3* may be the Best Western, Hilton Garden Inn, or Holiday Inn; the 2* is likely some extended stay type of property (Homewood Suites, Extended StayAmerica, etc), the 1* the Days Inn? (although these are usually 2* properties).Let us know whatever you end up doing and please use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchases you make.

eshspres Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Posted October 17, 2007 I went out on a limb after several unsuccessful bids in the $50 range. Residence Inn is a fairly new property in Columbia and not listed on the Missouri Priceline hotel list. I definitely can't complain as this is around 50% off best available rate for the property!
