valencia Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 actually my bidding at the end was up to $33, then when I added ATL South I dropped down to $32.. not sure why.. but it worked. I had edited this post but it didn't take. Link to comment

valencia Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Due to a snow storm at EWR I was unable to even GET to Atlanta for my reservation.I telephoned Priceline with my locator number, and they , with no resistance whatsoever, cancelled, at my request, my two-night stay, reimbursing me 100% of my bill.I then re-bid for the one night I would need, and received the same hotel at the same rate.Priceline had also assured me that if I were still not able to get to Atlanta, due to the build up with delayed flights, that they would again reimburse me.The Courtyard South is OK. My room was clean, quiet, and after my flight ordeal, a very welcome sight.The shuttle is every 15 minutes, but the morning I was leaving one came in 5 minutes after the last one.I did not use the food service.Free coffees in the lobby at breakfast.Not the fanciest Courtyard.. and the neighborhood has NOTHING around it..but it served my necessities just fine.The airport is about 3 minutes away, so taking MARTA around was also convenient.

AaronJB Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Glad to hear that PRICELINE was helpful in working with you given the snowstorm and that the hotel worked well for your stay. Link to comment
