dreinke Posted December 5, 2008 Report Share Posted December 5, 2008 Needed a hotel because we're going to the Sixers game at night then flying out early the next morning. So it made more sense to stay than to drive down and back twice.Bid $70 on a 4* first, then added 3.5* for $65 and won. ( I saw a 3* in the area on HOTWIRE for $59, so I had that as a backup plan)Got the Hilton at the airport which couldn't be any better! Now all I have to do is wakeup and walk over to the terminal. SWEET! thanks better bidding. Link to comment

dreinke Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 One of my Co-Workers decided to do the same thing. So we were able to put in another bid and got the same deal on another room 2 days later.$65 Hilton AirportWhy anyone would ever pay full rate for a hotel room is beyond me? Link to comment
ahallbetterb Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Got the Hilton at the airport which couldn't be any better! Now all I have to do is wakeup and walk over to the terminal.To clarify, the Hilton isn't walkable to/from PHL (well, not practically). It's not attached like the Marriott is. But it's very close; the shuttle gets you to/from PHL in about 5 minutes. Link to comment
dreinke Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yea, I had a brain-fart when I initially posted that thinking I had gotten the Marriott that is attached. It is very close though; sorry for any confusion. Link to comment
