Hotwire Hotel: 3* Orlando (Universal Orlando-I-Drive North) Four Points Studio City

[alverdine]

Here is the deal. Looking at Hotwire for 2/7 - 2/13 in the Universal zone in Orlando. If I select 1 room, the 3 star has Pool, Restaurant, and High Speed Internet and 90 percent recommended reviews. It has a price of $39.

If I select 3 rooms, which is what I need, the amenities stay the same, but the price increases to $46 and the recommend percent drops to 60 percent.

I believe one hotel to be the Best Western Orlando Gateway and the other Four Points by Sheraton Studio City. I do not know which is which.

I wonder, could it be just one hotel with the reviews and price changing solely based on number of rooms?

Also, do you think it would be possible to book the rooms individually and get all three at the cheaper of the two? Or could it be the $39 dollar hotel truly only has one room?

This is also weird. If I select more than one person per room, no recommendation data is displayed at all for any of the results.

When searching for 3 rooms... how many adults/children are you including in your search?

I searched for six people in three rooms.

I figured it out!!!!

I booked the 1 room $39 option. It turned out to be the Four Points Sheraton Studio City. I could tell because it would not give a Trip Advisor rating for this option, only a hotwire review rating. I knew from another post that the Best Western was coming up as a 4.0 Trip Advisor rating and sure enough the 3 room search result had a 4.0 trip advisor rating.

It also let me book the other two rooms. I just had to do it one at a time to get the same result. I am very pleased with how this turned out. I was hoping to get this hotel all along and would have gladly paid more for it than the Best Western.

I am interested in booking this hotel too...can you please tell me if there was a smoke-free icon also? I am seeing the Recommended in 90% that you mentioned but, the amenities icons are smoke free, fitness, pool, resturaunt, business & internet.

I'm booking 7/2-7/4 for 2 people and coming up with $49 night...which I want to totally jump on.

Also, it's saying 9.3 miles to the airport if that helps???
