Greensboro, NC airport hotel on priceline or hotwire

Does either priceline or hotwire use the airport Marriott in Greensboro, NC? If not, does anyone know which airport hotels they do use? I checked the better bidding and bidding for travel sites already but was not able to find the information.

The biddingfortravel site shows the Greensboro Airport as one of 5 zones in the Greensboro area. The only hotels they list are 2-stars: Candlewood Suites and Ramada Greensboro Airport. Under 3 Star, BFT says "(none reported yet)", which indicates that PL offers this zone but nobody has reported a win there yet.

The zone called just "Greensboro" does list the Greensboro Marriott Downtown.

As hte BFT listing proclaims, these lists are just users' reports, and are thus necessarily incomplete and possibly obsolete.

I just used priceline for about the 10th time. While bids seem to be about the same, the total prices with fees, taxes, etc have gone up. Then I read winning bids haven`t changed, it`s the add on tax. How can they change that?

The tax and service fees are combined. Hotwire has had higher fees in the past, but I'm not sure as it seems Pl's fees have gone up also. Perhaps the fees are now the same on both sites, however Hotwire has a more liberal rating system as well as higher hotel prices much of the time since you don't bid.
