clorge Posted October 16, 2009 Report Posted October 16, 2009 I bid on 4*, USW for 10/30-11/1. My bid of $80 was accepted at Hotel Nikko.I hear it is a nice hotel, but I will come back to let you know. I just called the hotel to ask if I could guarantee a King bed because we have two people and they told me a get a petite queen room - and I could pay $20 per night to upgrade to a King. She said that is the "risk" of using priceline, something all bidders should know!I used this technique before when I got the Hyatt USE for $65. They were willing to upgrade for free...
AaronJB Posted October 17, 2009 Report Posted October 17, 2009 Congratulations on your success and welcome to the site.Certainly does look like an excellent deal for this well-reviewed property.PRICELINE does state that bedding type is not guaranteed. Bedding availability varies by hotel, and some do charge more for rooms w/2 beds or larger rooms w/kings. Not all hotels are going to be the same - some will, some will not and in some cases it may depend on the day.Thank you for sharing your results with the board and please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start future purchases.Enjoy your stay.
