as DutchessPDX mentioned, stars are not a legally recognized term... no uniform way to measure
implicitly, they are offering "5-star property as rated/normalized by Priceline's guidelines"... and they met this requirement
(it makes sense right? a french hotel might say they are only 3 stars (out of 4)... and priceline would normalize it to their 5-star rating. french now uses 5 stars)
