gevaltech Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 Looking to stay in Brooklyn for friend's wedding one night... Feb. 15. Hotwire shows a 2* with 3.5 rating on TA (last in Dec). Amenities are free breakfast and wireless in rooms.Any ideas what this is? Would I do better with Priceline?thanks... Link to comment
gevaltech Posted January 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 oops, forgot the price... $62; and the class is actually 2.5*. I'm thinking it is the Comfort Inn Brooklyn (recently converted to a Holiday Inn Express?).anyone??? Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 23, 2009 Report Share Posted January 23, 2009 The Holiday Inn Express would be a good guess... the amenities seem to match previous reports and the Tripadvisor information is consistent with the information for the previous Comfort Inn ownership, BUT the Comfort Inn was previously reported at the 3* rated. However, with HOTWIRE recently re-rating all the hotels in their system, and the change of ownership, it's quite possible that this property has been downgraded in the process. To confirm, we're talking about the Butler St location as there is a different Holiday Inn Express in Brooklyn. Also, are you familiar with the area at all? Brooklyn, as well as the HOTWIRE zone, is quite large and geographically spread out... assuming the above is correct, would this be close to the wedding venue? (it's possible that some Manhattan locations could ultimately prove to be more convenient)Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Lets us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

gevaltech Posted July 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Just wanted to finish off this old thread by saying we ended up staying that night with an old friend who had recently moved into the area right near where the wedding was held. We did use the site links to Priceline for our stay in NJ for the other nights of that trip... as reported in another thread. Thanks Thereuare for your continued help and this valuable site.
