stprdi Posted August 27, 2007 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I've been 1/2 way through the bidding form, it says the price is per room/night and rooms are for up to 2 adults max. When do you state/or how do you get a room for 3 adults??? Really confused by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megr1125 Posted August 27, 2007 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2007 You can't specify this on PL..I think you can on Hotwire....you coul always call the place you win and ask for 2 beds, but they only say a room for 2 on PL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweetylori Posted August 27, 2007 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2007 That is correct. You shouldn't use Priceline if you have more than two people per room. Hotwire you can specify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeymom97 Posted August 27, 2007 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I've booked hrough priceline and after I made the reservation, I called the hotel directly and they were able to make the notation on our reservation that we needed 2 double/queen beds w/ no problem. I think I read that this was possible in the fine print somewhere on the priceline site. Something about the reservation is only guaranteed for 2 people, but you can call the hotel directly with special requests if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eandj Posted August 27, 2007 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2007 As stated earlier, you cannot specify any typical requests on Priceline. Yes, I always call the hotel direct closer to the date of my res. to request certain things. But that's all it is...a REQUEST. The hotel is under no obligation to give you your request. We like King size beds. Sometimes we get them. Sometimes not. Depends what is available when we check in. If we needed an extra bed "for sure", I wouldn't book with Priceline. Don't want any surprises or disappointments at the start of my vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use PL often all over the world but I never book expecting anything other than what they guarantee: a room for two people, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkloni Posted August 28, 2007 #7 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Guaranteed only for 2 people. Some hotels (like in NY) only have 1 bed or 2 twins and 3 people can't fit. A few years ago I thought I'd be safe booking thru Priceline for an Orlando room 1 night pre-Disney package. Well the room had a queen bed. That's all the hotel had. No 2 bed rooms. Our 13 yr old son had to sleep on the recliner that was in the room. Thank goodness the room at least had that. (He thought it was cool and enjoyed sleeping on it.) Just be careful. I think I'd used Hotwire if you have 3 people. Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
