Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Philadelphia (Downtown) Crown Plaza

[quiteyoung]

First bid of 55$ got rejected. using rebid, 57$ is accepted.

used the PRICELINE link here of course.

Checked with the hotel, they provide free wifi. However, no free parking...

any comment on how to get cheap/free parking in that area?

How safe it is to park on the street overnight?

Congratulations on your success. :)

Very nice deal for this property! Hopefully, local members of the board can suggest parking options nearby,

Can you confirm if this property was 3.5* or 3*?

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using the site's PRICELINE link.

Enjoy your stay.

I've edited your topic title to indicate that this property is currently 3.5* rated by PRICELINE... can you please check your winning bid confirmation page and confirm if the star rating there is 3* or 3.5*? (even if you bid 3* your confirmation page may indicate that PRICELINE ugpraded your bid to the 3.5* level)

THANKS!

here is a link to the Philadelphia Parking Authority where you can find parking lots and check rates near your hotel, which is located at 1800 Market Street. The PPA owns an underground parking garage at 1500 Arch Street and the 24 hour rate is $20.

By the way, the PPA is featured on the cable TV show Parking Wars, civil servants at their finest!
