A couple of questions...

[bostonguy57]

How do I know for sure that there will be two beds in a room that I book through PRICELINE? If I check off that there are two people staying in the room will I automatically get two beds?

Also,

I have been bidding on two rooms in NYC for 4th of July weekend. Since I already have a confirmed reservation at a Marriott Courtyard for $200 per room, per night I have been bidding quite a bit lower in an attempt to beat that price. Last night I entered a bid of $125 and got a response back from Priceline that I have never seen before. They recommended that I raise my bid by $22 and told me that I could do it immediately without changing any other criteria on the bid. Is this Priceline's way of telling me that a hotel in Manhattan would give me rooms for $147 per night?

Thanks in advance for any help on these questions!

Yes. You can usually beat the counter offers.
