I have used Hotwire a number of times in hopes of getting a "deal". But EVERY SINGLE "deal" has been a nightmare. I stopped using them after my last horrific experience at one of their hotrate hotels and decided Id give it one more shot. Terrible. Terrible mistake. I got the Millennium Hotel on Broadway and the supposed "free-wifi" as it was advertised on Hotwire is NOT free. Their service was subhuman. The concierge "Syed" was NOT accommodating whatsoever. I asked for a queen and he INSISTED that he has no choice but to give me to double beds. The room smells funny. This is just a nightmare. Please just HOTEL TONIGHT. All the information is ALWAYS straightforward and accurate.
