awid333 Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Posted March 1, 2010 Update...I just called to ask for a 2-bed room for my reservation this Saturday night, and the hotel said that because the booking was made with priceline that it only qualifies for a one king size bed room. To get 2 double beds there is an additional fee of $15 per night!!! Just a note to others, since you might be better off bidding for a higher star hotel in the area once you add on the additional fee.
thereuare Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Bidding for a higher rated hotel won't necessarily help in this situation as you could just as easily receive the same response from a higher rated hotel.PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy, if you need more than double occupancy, or require two beds, HOTWIRE may be a better option.At least the hotel was willing to work with you regarding the bedding situation, as there are some hotels which won't. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
Viz79 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Posted March 3, 2010 Call back and ask politely if you can be switched to a 2 double beds room. Try a couple of times on different days at different times. You never know...~V79~
