larryk Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Need Sun Jun 1 - Wed Jun 4, 3 nights in DCThere's a 5,000+ person convention then I'm attending.Tried the following (based on other msg on this board). Yes, used the PRICELINE link$140 4* Convention Center: nope$180 4* Convention Center or White house / downtown: nope$205 3* or 4* Convention Center or White house / downtown: success at the Doubletree WashingtonSince I'm splitting the cost with a buddy who is going to the same conf, I don't feel too bad.Quikbook is showing $259 for 2 double beds.More than I've ever paid via priceline...market pricing I suppose.C'est la vie.Regards,Larry Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Congratulations on your win!While this may be more than you've ever paid thru PRICELINE, you probably haven't traveled during such a peak period. I've i'm looking at the correct property, rates directly thru the hotel website are $349/nite.Can you confirm that this is the Doubletree at 1515 Rhode Island Avenue NW? (and not the Doubletree Guest Suites)Thank you for sharing your win with the board and for using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.Enjoy your stay (and have fun at the conference).
