Thanks to this site, I only entered the bid once and it was accepted first time!! I bid through this site's PRICELINE link and chose the Cranston/Warwick area, three star and put in a bid for $39.00. The only strange thing I noticed is that the taxes and service fees were a little higher than anticipated. I already had booked a hotel for the weekend through Choice Hotels and after the rate they showed taxes for $12.74 for the two day stay. The taxes/service fees were the same for a 1 night stay through priceline! I guess that's how they make their money, but if I had bid only $5.00 higher, this would have cost the same as the hotel I had booked previously. If I wasn't sure about staying there this weekend, then I would have chosen the other hotel as there is a cancellation policy.

So for $39.00 plus $12.47, I received:

Hilt Garden Inn

Cranston - Warwick - Providence Airport (PVD)

1 Thurber Street

Warwick, Rhode Island 02886

401-734-9600

Congratulations on your success!

Glad to see you're happy with the results and this works well for your plans.

PRICELINE's booking fee is included in the "taxes and fees" line, and is about $7 on a one nite stay, so that is the reason for the difference in taxes (as PRICELINE's amount also includes the ~$7 booking fee)

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.

Enjoy your stay.

Both this hotel that we won for $39.00 and the NYLO which two of our friends won for the same date of July 17, 2009 for $39.00 were beautiful locations! We had hoped to have all stayed at the same location, but since she booked two rooms at once, it might have bounced her over to the NYLO. I had read the reviews on the NYLO and it seemed as though people had one extreme or the other on this hotel. I will say that it is a hotel above a night club and that seems to be why the reviews go one way or the other. The rooms are beautiful and the decor is very unique with throw rugs on polished cement. It was a very cool experience for us! The other thing to note about the NYLO is that it only has King sized beds with a small sofa for 1 child or two twin beds and no sofa. With Priceline bidding, they will only guarantee you accommodations for two adults, so if traveling with 2 children, this would not be an ideal situation.
