Need some help with priceline/hotwire bidding

[clh2]

Hi -
We will be going to Chicago in October, and are considering bidding for a hotel (just need it for one night).

My really big concern is - is there anyway you can specify the number of beds? Trust me - my 17 yo DD will not want to share a bed with us. Is there a way to "request" 2 double/queen beds?

Thanks!
Cheryl

With Priceline, they only guarantee 1 bed. You can call the hotel directly after the bid is won and ask for a room with 2 beds. We have never had a problem getting a double room.

With hotwire, you can specify the number of people in the room before bidding.

To be safe, I would use Hotwire in your situation.
The Better bidding website would help you pinpoint which hotel you may get. We used it last summer for a Sheraton Suites not too far from the airport for $35 a night.
