ProfessorBargain Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Follow up: The same morning as check in I tried to use he extend my stay by one night. Rejected by Priceline but it counteroffered with $81:We searched the Hyatt Regency Vancouver, however we were not able to find an additional night for your price of $69 per room, per night. Your credit card has not been charged. During our search we found a rate of $81 per room, per night. If you are willing to accept this new price, you can get your additional night right now. Your original reservation will remain unchanged. Link to comment
