Priceline Hotel: 4* Chicago (Airport OHare) Hyatt Regency

[perseus7401]

First time using PRICELINE for a hotel, so looked around on HOTWIRE and saw a price of 46 dollars for a 3 star hotel. I decided to bid 50 dollars on priceline for a 3 star hotel, and the result came with:

Congratulations, we've upgraded your hotel quality level to a 4-star hotel. Your price of $50 was accepted by Hyatt Regency O Hare

After taxes total comes out to be 64.96

Pretty happy with the results as the last time i was in chicago, my so called savvy friend stuck me in some ghetto hotel which was around 70 dollars, and this was couple of years ago, so hyatt 2 years later for less than 70 is a bargain in my book! :)

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Congratulations on your win and thank you for sharing your results with the board.

Glad to see you're happy with the results, although if you saw a 3* hotel on HOTWIRE for $46 i'm not sure why you bid $50 on PRICELINE? :) Fortunately you were upgraded so it was probably an extra $4 well spent.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Enjoy your stay.

Because couple of other bids I had tried in previous weeks using hotwire as a baseline, got rejected....so i saw 46 and i figured, ill try 50 and see; and yea, i can cough up 4 dollars. But since i'm a newbie on these bidding sites, ill do better research next time. :)
