sandman849 Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Posted January 18, 2010 Was initially extremely happy but am currently a little worried 1 hour later. Went to the hotel website and they have a room named "Parlor-Corner room. Bedding consists of a fold out queen size sleeper sofa only, no bed." I am currently worried that this is the room I received. Too early to tell tho, anyone have any insight? I have to wait 1-day for the hotel to receive information from priceline. I will come back and inform everyone of the hotel room selection.
AaronJB Posted January 18, 2010 Report Posted January 18, 2010 A fair amount of hotels in major cities have parlor rooms (they often seem to be able to be used as meeting rooms or for other uses if need be), although I wouldn't worry that these are rooms for PRICELINE customers, as that would not necessarily be the case. You could contact the hotel to inquire how they have you booked.
sandman849 Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Posted January 19, 2010 Checked with the hotel today, we do have a King sized bed, so that is good. The value of that is $133 a night, but currently they have a 40% off sale, which the did NOT have last night, weird timing. Overall the price different between booking through Priceline and booking through the hotel would have been a $15 difference, the cheaper being the hotel. Don't really care about that, just happy to NOT have a parlor room. I will use priceline again in the future.

I will use priceline again in the future.that's interesting because I just went to their website, entered dates of 4/8-4/13 and price per room was over $200 (even $177 for parlor room!). perhaps I need to call to get the 40% off price??guess dates albeit slight difference could affect it too...
AaronJB Posted January 19, 2010 Report Posted January 19, 2010 Glad to hear that the hotel was able to confirm a non-parlor room.
