UncleBad Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 Starting my bidding at Priceline using this link: PRICELINEI could just about swear that I selected the Disney World Vicinity, but my winning bid was for Amerisuites Orlando Airport 7500 Augusta National DriveI'm not even going to Disney, so it's not a HUGE deal, but I wanted something family friendly Orlando poolside type thing, not a business class hotel. Free breakfast and free Internet at Amerisuites is added bonus, but I'm concerned about Priceline. I don't see a way to verify which zones they searched for me. Looking at confirmation emails and such I don't see where they say, "Your bid for an Airport hotel was accepted". All they say is that my bid for an Orlando hotel was accepted. Outside of calling customer service, is there a way to check on the bid?What if they booked me a 1* hotel? Is there a way to look back at your search parameters? I also read a review of the hotel at TripAdvisor, and the reviewer, Reggie, had this to say, "We booked this room via Priceline for our visit to Disney and Seaworld. Upon finding out that I won, I was somewhat disappointed upon reading the reviews, and realizing it was so far away from the themepark "district" Apparently, I'm not the only person to be assigned this hotel that didn't want this area OR we both made the same mistake. Considering the number of times I've used Priceline, and the fact that I'm sober this morning. I doubt I selected Airport instead of Disney area. Any suggestions on getting another chance to bid if I decide I really don't want the Amerisuites? From what I've read, Priceline isn't real flexible about changing things.
