Priceline Hotel: What hotel is the 3* Tampa (Brandon)?

[cherokeejacket]

This is my first post here, so forgive me for my ignorance. I've only used Priceline once before last year to get a room at the Hilton Garden Inn 2.5* Tampa North. I was successful using bidding info from this board, Thank you.

I want to make reservation for 8/30-8/31 for the same area. Priceline is now listing a 3* Hotel in the Tampa Brandon but I've seen nothing anywhere on this board, including the list of hotels, to indicate what this hotel is? Is this a new listing? I would rather get into the Brandon area (closer to the family I'm visiting) but I don't want to reserve a room totally blind.

I know the Courtyard is listed in this area as a 2.5* and based on reviews of this hotel, I would not want stay there. Is it possible Priceline upped the rating for Courtyard, or this totally new hotel. There is beautiful year old Homewood Suites in this area, could this be the new 3* hotel?

Any help would be appreciated.

It would be appreciated if you also shared your win with the board... helping future users just as you were helped by those before you. :)

The 3* hotel in Brandon has not yet been reproted to the board, but there is an Embassy Suites in this area and that would be at least one possibility.

Have you also considered HOTWIRE?

Could also be the Hard Rock.

The closest 3* to the area is the Crown Plaza at Interstate 75 and MLK Blvd.
