What city and zone were you bidding on and what hotel did you receive?
Your post isn't even clear if you were using Name Your Own Price or the traditional hotel reservation service.
Without further details I would attribute this to an error on your part and not to Priceline, which has worked as I expected the 100+ times I've used it to buy hotel rooms (not to say I've never made a mistake bidding though, a couple times putting in the wrong dates and once putting in the wrong name, it happens).
