I am looking at a 2* Hotwire hotel. The rate is $26 and there are no amenities listed. The only unique thing I see is a statement, "We are still gathering reviews for this property". Any thoughts? Thanks.

I won the Hyatt Place hotel in the Northwest Zone. My first bid of $48 was accepted. :)

I am happy considering the reviews I have read from Trip Advisor and other sites. Also, saving more than 50% is nice.

I will continue to use Better Bidding and will make sure to use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to place my bid.

Well, I decided that I would likely get either Staybridge or Hyatt Place if I bid on a three star in the Northwest Zone. After looking at both hotels, I discovered that they both come with sleeper sofa standard for the rooms so even if I could not get double beds, we would OK with the sleeping arraignments.

I thought I would start out just bidding the NW Zone at $48.00 per night. The bid was accepted so we are set. In the morning I will try for the two beds but will be fine with just one.

Thanks so much for your help and this site!

I could probably bring an air bed that we have if the worst case scenario prevailed. I went to several sites including Hotwire and the prices were $170 at the resort which is pretty steep for me. That's where I discovered Staybridge Suites. If I get Staybridge, I know I could accommodate 4 people since they are suites.

My Actual dates are check in 7/30/09 and checkout is 8/4/2009.

Am I correct that Staybridge Suites has only one other hotel with 3 stars in its zone? The zones were different on the regular priceline booking site.

I have reviewed BB for possible options for our family vacation. I was looking at the Resorts but am shying away due to the fact that accommodating 2 adults and 2 children may be problematic. From what I've read, it sounds like the resorts want to charge an additional $50 for double beds plus a $15 resort fee. If anyone has recent insight here, please let me know.

So now I am looking at the Staybridge Suites NW-Colonnade. Reviews are good. I have not located any successful strategies here but I think it may be easy due to there seems to be only two 3 star hotels in San Antonio (NW). The other hotel is the Hyatt Place. I have not seen any posts on it either.

Any insight or strategies would be appreciated including free bid possibilities.
