First time trying hotwire, as for the first time there was the following winning combination

- package search showed only one 3* hotel in SM area was Holiday Inn Santa Monica Beach at the Pier

- the reviews are good for the hotel, including free parking

- the hotel website showed that the rooms jumped in price from $176 to $196 on Fri and Sat as there is a special event on. What could this be? I decided not to wait to buy the rooms just in case this hotel fills up.

Congratulations on your win... and nice detective work!

As Priceline requires your bid to be high enough for each nite of your stay, and Hotwire averages the nightly rate, Hotwire can often be very competitive when there is a rate change during a stay and one does not wish to SPLIT THEIR BID.

Can you please add all of the amenities that Hotwire showed before purchase, as this is the information that will best help others identify this property before purchase in the future. You can still view all of these amenities by clicking the MY ACCOUNT link on the top right corner of Hotwire's homepage.

Thanks!

Pat are you still here? You listed free parking at this hotel, but they charge $18.70, it's on their web site and I called them to confirm. (Maybe they figure the parkade is nice enough that you'll want to sleep in yer car :-(
