Priceline Hotel: 2* Mount Pleasant Baymont Inn and Suites

[jicms]

I need to book three nights in the Mount Pleasant, MI area 09/10 - 09/13. There is only one zone and only a choice of 1 or 2* so not much flexibility. Priceline's prices seem quite high for the area/rating, $81 upwards for 2*. What should I start my bid at? Hotwire don't offer Mount Pleasant, only Midland with only one 3* hotel at $104.

Thanks.

I tend to wonder if there's going to be that much inventory in a smaller market like this, and the deals are generally not as good. I'd try at $50 for a 2*; while that may wind up being a lowball offer, it's worth trying.

Additionally, the coupon code SUMMERVIN may work for 15% off some hotels on Orbitz.com.

Please use the site's HOTWIRE or Orbitz.com or PRICELINE links to start your purchase.

I've just won the Baymont Hotel & Suites, Mt Pleasant, MI for $55. Used the PRICELINE link.

As we're a party of four adults should I rebid for a second room or contact the hotel to see what room they've allocated us and if necessary upgrade to a suite?

I'd call them and work something out. I would not try for another room.

Let us know how it goes or if you have further questions. Just to confirm, was the Baymont a 2*?

Thank you for posting your win and using the site's PRICELINE link to start your purchase.

Yes it was a 2* and for info. they replied to my query about room sizes:

"Thank you for contacting Baymont Inn and Suites Reservations regarding

your request.

There are two different suites available. One has a one king size bed

with a whirlpool. This will only allow 2 people, there is no sofa beds

or pull out beds.

The second suite has a one king size bed with a pull out couch along

with a microwave and a refrigerator. This is one large room with the bed

on side of the room and an area with the sitting area with the couch

that pulls out."

Hopefully this means that I can request the second type of suite.

Thanks for all the help.

I have stayed at Baymonts before and above is what they have when you ask for a suite. But they also have what they call Business Rooms (expanded desk and few other perks) and they they have regular rooms with two double beds. So,, if that is acceptable,, just request 2 double beds ahead of time. One nice plus of this Baymont is they have a 24 hour pool. That is so rare nowdays. Have fun and and don't forget the casino is nearby and they have a pretty good buffet.
