Information: Find hotel freebies through new Priceline feature.

Travel website Priceline.com has a new feature sure to appeal to freebie-lovers - now you can search for hotels with specific freebies!  They've always listed complimentary amenities in the product pages, but now they've organized their site so that you can do a search for a particular freebie (e.g., free breakfast). More info:
Most consumers will probably search by location. Type your destination into the white box next to "find my deal" on the Priceline.com/freebies page. Enter Atlanta, for example, click "free breakfast," and 20 choices pop up with details on the offers. Click on the "see dates" feature on the right for a calendar.


You can also filter results by a particular freebie....The new Priceline feature has a total of 10 freebies to choose from: free breakfast, free parking, golf credit, spa credit, room upgrade, resort credit, kids stay free, free nights, hotel extras and instant discount.
My favorite feature in a hotel is a cheap price, but if you really care about in-hotel gyms or free parking, this could be a useful tool for narrowing down your options.
