Hotwire Hotel: 4* San Diego (Carlsbad) Sheraton Carlsbad Resort

[thebrowns]

I had never heard about HOTWIRE and we were looking to

go to Legoland. To be honest we were petrified about

agreeing to pay money on a site unseen. But we tried it anyways

and got the Sheraton Resort & Spa in Carlsbad for 115.00 a nite.

Which what I am looking at is a screaming deal. I am just

worried that I put in that we have two kids and they will

only give us one bed. I called Sheraton but they pretty

much said it was booked through HOTWIRE and the only

guarantee is that we have a room. Is there anything we can

do to insure that there are two beds?? We are traveling Aug 21-24.

Thank you for any responses

I stayed at the Sheraton a few weeks ago and the rooms there are huge. Because it's so near Legoland many families stay at the Sheraton and I imagine they have a lot of two-bed rooms. Even if you don't get two beds one kid can sleep on the couch and there will be still LOTS of room for a rolllaway or two or three. I would say don't worry about it.

Btw, a couple weeks after I checked out I got a $10 charge on my credit card from Sheraton. I still don't know what the charge was for and haven't had time to call. Parking was $8/night but they didn't charge me for that at the time. At checkout they said I had a zero balance. Maybe the $10 was parking plus tax?

Thank You so much for your response. I thought about a roll away

but wasn't sure about enough room. The pictures they offer doesn't

seem to give a real good feel about the size.

I'll watch the credit card bill as well. Thank you for the tip.

Thanks for following-up with the amenities.

You could call HOTWIRE now and try to have them take care of it now before your stay, but it depends how much you 'worry' about these things.

Enjoy your stay.
