damiene Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Had tried various prices and combos of dates (friday to friday, sat to sat, sun to sun) for the neighborhoods we wanted (Crystal City, Alexandria, Arlington) on Priceline, ranging from $50-$65 but wasn't able to land anything. Since Hotwire had this offer of $69 sitting there for a hotel I was able to ID through the Hotwire hotel listings on this site, I decided to go with that rather than push up the price further on Priceline.Very happy with this price, Travelocity, Hotels.com etc are listing this place from $200-$220 a night for these dates!Amenities listed as: Smoke Free Rooms, Airport Shuttle, Fitness Center, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, Laundry Facilities, High-speed Internet Access, and once I clicked continue on this offer, it also listed Tennis Nearby.I used the HOTWIRE link in the "Support Better Bidding" section of the forum to make my purchase.

thereuare Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Congratulations on your success!Glad to hear that the board was helpful and that you found something which would work well for your plans. The added space of a Suite type room is always welcomed on an extended stay. As well, this property provides a shuttle to the metro (at the airport) i believe.Thank you for sharing your results with the board and for using our HOTWIRE link to begin your purchase.Enjoy your stay.
