Question re. "upgrade" on bid...

Picture it...

Zone A has only one 3* hotel participating on Priceline, and only one 4* hotel participating on Priceline.

The rate "usually" accepted for the 3* hotel is $40. The rate "usually" accepted for the 4* hotel is $35 (lower than the 3* hotel!).

Both hotel have availability for my date of travel.

I bid $40 for a 3* hotel.

Do I still run a chance/risk of getting "upgraded"? Or will Priceline first attempt to book me in the star level I bid on?

The reason I'm asking is because I'm willing to pay a little more for a place like Residence Inn (and get free WiFi, parking and breakfast), rather than stay at a Sheraton and get charged an arm and a leg for every single local phone call, etc...

Anyone have ANY input/experience in this??????
