CJ,
You can choose a particular property at Priceline now but the prices aren't as appealing as when you bid on it.
The good thing about the Hyatt Pier 66 is it is
probably the hotel you will get if you bid on a 4 star only hotel at Priceline. Someone mentioned before that you might get the next higher catagory, the resort catagory, even if you didn't request that catagory. I have never had that happen to me the the Hyatt Pier 66 but I am sure it happens.
Here is the list of reported hotels that Priceline uses and their catagories.
Fort Lauderdale Beach
Resort
Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort
4 Star
Hyatt Regency Pier Sixty Six
3 Star
Sheraton Yankee Clipper Resort
Doubletree Suites Galleria
