I think I would be willing to take my chances with PRICELINE as long as it would be comparable & much cheaper than the other options. So are there any tips to bidding other than guessing? Also could you provide clarification on the "Resort" vs "3 1/2 star" question? If I choose Resort, will it feed me any resort in any star range(most places claim to be resorts) and vice versa, if I choose a star rating and not resort, will i be ONLY offered hotels?
