willpower Posted August 12, 2009 Report Posted August 12, 2009 Room Cost (per night): $65.00 (USD) Room Subtotal: $130.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $28.43 (USD) Total Room Cost: $158.43 (USD) Booked through the betterbidding.com PRICELINE link above. Hotwire offered a 3.5* the same dates and similar location for $75. Since it has been my experience often that Hotwire is offering a fixed rate for most likely the same hotel, I find that I can bid a little less on PRICELINE for what is a good chance going to be the same hotel. I specifically wanted this particular hotel since I will be going to the Giants-Jets NFL exhibition game across the freeway. The Sheraton website had an advance non-refundable booking price of $114/night. The Priceline and Hotwire forums on BetterBidding.com gave me confidence that I was going to get this hotel anyway and I did!! The other 3* and above possibilities on both Priceline and Hotwire in that particular area seemed acceptable to me, if I ended up being wrong, but at least for now I couldn't be any more pleased. Free parking at hotel and apparently only a $6 round trip shuttle to the stadium direct from the hotel. Thanks.
