yellowdog Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 sweetcarolinecan you please comfirm the star rating for this hotel. Your topic said 3.5* and you say that you bid at 3* level. You can check this under your profile/upcoming trips at PRICELINE or just look at the comfirmation if you have printed this.Yellowdog. Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 I believe this property is currently rated 4* by PRICELINE so i've edited the topic title accordingly, but hopefully the OP will come back and confirm so we'll know for certain we have it correct. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
