Hotwire Hotel: Help identifying two 3 star hotels in Vegas 10/23/09-10/25/09

I do not see either of these listed on the list of Hotwire identified hotels here, and I've searched some Vegas maps trying to figure them out - any ideas? I've listed ALL amenities (after clicking "continue" and then "show all amenities" on Hotwire).

#1) 3 star in Near Strip South $79/night, Trip Advisor rating 3.5 out of 5: Boutique hotel, casino, smoke-free rooms, airport shuttle, fitness center, pool, restaurant, high-speed internet, golf

#2) 3 star in Near Strip East $89/night, Trip Advisor rating 4.0 out of 5: casino, airport shuttle, fitness center, pool, restaurant, business center, high-speed internet

I'm leaning toward a Priceline bid for this trip, but if I can figure out what hotels these are that may change my mind. As always I will use the hto.wire or PRICELINE links through Better Bidding. Thanks for any help! :)

The properties above have not yet been identified, but if you do bid on PRICELINE, are you looking at the Strip or Off-Strip location?

Thanks for using our PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your purchases.

Most likely on the Strip, but don't really mind walking a few blocks if necessary. I'm VERY familiar with Vegas - i.e. they take my money all the time, lol. I've got a back up room reserved at the Sahara for a very good weekend rate of $56/night, but I wouldn't mind getting something a little nicer and closer to the south end. At least it's next to the monorail. I won a bid for the Renaissance last year and that was pretty nice (although I prefer a hotel with a casino), and I've noticed a couple of recent weekend wins for about $60 there, so I might try to get that again. (I realize that the Hard Rock is a 4 star in the same zone and I could end up with that, although I've never seen anyone win the Hard Rock for that cheap on a weekend). We're coming in for the U2 show and I figured it might be better to start early with this one since hotels may fill up because of that.
