Satisfied with hotel and price. Very nice hotel. Stayed there earlier in the month.

Made my purchase through the betterbidding.com link for PRICELINE.

The feedback and advice from this web site was very helpful in that I always used to accept the Priceline counteroffer as the best possible price. I now know that this is not the case. It appears that I saved $10 a night on this booking by not accepting the $54 counteroffer.
