KatiesMom Posted April 10, 2009 Report Posted April 10, 2009 As soon as I saw this property on hotwire, I figured it was the Radisson from the betterbidding pinned list. The problem is, I didn't want it. Even though it is only a one-night stay I have gotten fussy in my old age, and the reviews for this hotel are very lukewarm on Trip Advisor, so I tried everything to get a better property for around the same price - to no avail.We are seeing a show in New London and need a spot for just one night. The pickings were slim on hotwire for a stay in the New London/Mystic area. I bid on priceline using free rebids up the ying yang to no avail. (Up to $110 for a 3.5* targeting only the Marriott Mystic (using free rebids), and then refreshed and bid 3* in other area zones hoping to get a Holiday Inn (I am a preferred customer) up to $70 with no takers.Because there are three of us, I figured a Marriott or Holiday Inn would be fine on priceline to get a room with two beds, but I was not really willing to gamble much more, so I played it safe and went hotwire to guarantee two beds, and got the Radisson for $79. Amenities include Airport Shuttle, Fitness Center, Pool, Restaurant.Showed my support for betterbidding by using the HOTWIRE link.
