Hi, I'm new here and thought I'd enlist this forums help! I'm going to be traveling to Los Angeles this weekend and would like to bid and win a 3 star hotel or better for $100 or less a night. Of course the more I can save the happier I'll be :D I will be renting a car also for the weekend so if there are any tips for that, please share. I'm debating if its even worth bidding on a rental considering the price Ive been finding is about $60 for a compact for 3 days. Since I'll be having a car I'm also concerned about parking and costs at the particular hotel. I plan on visiting downtown LA, Universal Studios and Venice beach etc so I'm okay with staying at a hotel thats relative to any of these areas.
