Congrats - it seems you are only the second FTer ever to get a Hilton BRG claim approved

Watch out for this AMEX GC - for many it never arrived...
But it's a nice, snappy hotel search site - good find!

Try this
Room Cancellation Policy
Hotel cancellations or changes made 1 day/s prior to check in time (Noon local hotel time), will be subject to 1 night/s fee
No-show is subjected to 1 night/s fee
On Hiltons website booked 2 Dbl Beds non-theater room. Non preipaid rate.
In email was very clear to point out this was not an auction but rather a publicly avaialble rate through their book it now feature.
I read the cancelation policy as you can cancel w/o penalty before noon 1 day prior to arrival.

I was looking through this site and it seems there is a nightly fee, typically something like this
Tax and service charges of $49.00 per room per night additional.
and then
Extra nightly surcharges apply: Fri $15, Sat $15
so while I might "win" an auction for $200, there is this as well
not a terrible deal at $50-$65 a night +($130) but its not a steal in most cases, unless I am reading this wrong

Wrong. Matt this is the case for skyauctions. I am using their bookitnow feature where you simply book hotels much like expedia. Check it out there are some deals out there.
