Priceline Hotel: 3* Tampa Tampa (Airport TPA and Westshore) Doubletree Guest Suites

[Pthomas156]

Started bidding a week ago at $33 for Tampa Airport 3 star. Went up a couple of dollars each day until 11/4 when I got the Doubletree Hotel Tampa Westshore for $43 when Hotwire was at $49. (However, one day during that time Hotwire had a 3-star for $39! I was bidding below that then.) Just called the Doubletree to see if they'd reserve a room with two beds, and they said they'd request it but couldn't guarantee. Said I should call Priceline ("my travel agent") if I wanted to modify (right!). The one-king-bed rooms are going on their site for $99 while their two-bedded rooms are going for $149. Another poster to this site said they'd called and were told it was no problem. So maybe I just got a reservation agent who resents Priceline and people who get good deals. We'll see what happens when I get to the hotel. There's just my daughter and myself, so it doesn't matter, but it's always interesting to see what happens with these special deals.
