Very legit. Or at least it used to be when I used Priceline to book rooms. They had a feature, name your own price, where you selected a specific area and the star level of hotel you wanted. I used it when I traveled back and forth to okc for work. I always picked south of 40 on meridian because it was close to work and there were a ton of hotels. It’s not the greatest area but it wasn’t THAT bad. I wouldn’t book till I got to town and would select the area, select 4-5 star, put in the price I was willing to pay, $38 per night, and click book my room. It was always either a Wyndham garden or a Hyatt place that would give me the room. Id walk on maybe 10 minutes later and check in. The desk folks were always incredulous at cost of my room. Always worked out great!
