Hello thereuare! thanks for the response. Looking for 2 rooms. preferably 4*. under $80 would be wonderful. Do you know if the Hotel's in that area commonly give only a single bed or does it vary? Do you know how much more I would spend thru hotwire if I wanted the guarantee? thx so much!

Hello all! Not too familiar with the Chicago area so a little help would be greatly appreciated! :-) There will be 8 of us (2 families total) coming into Union Station on the train. We will be mostly sight-seeing (museums, etc.) and shopping. Any advice on the bidding strategy? Thanks so much!

Thanks for cleaning up my title. I wasn't sure how to do that. :) Also...thanks for all you do! I love this site!

Won this bid on the first try! :)

Thanks for the help! I first bid in the Beverly Hills area for a 4* for $70 and was rejected. I then added West Hollywood, 3*, $60 and the bid was accepted. We won our bid for the Hyatt West Hollywood. Thanks again for you suggestions! Wendy

My sister and I are going to L.A. April 1-6. We have plans with family April 3-6 but would like to stay in the L.A. area the first 2 nights for sight-seeing. We would like to walk Venice beach up to Santa Monica, see the Chinese theater, Hollywood blvd, Rodeo drive... Does anyone have an idea which area I should bid on and which * level? We are renting a car from LAX and will have to park it also. If you are a local, is there anything else you would recommend we do while we're there? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've heard alot of bad reviews about this hotel but our stay was quite pleasant. We won a bid of $95 on August 1-4th. The hotel clerk was quite nice but said No, we couldn't use our Hilton Honors card even for incidentals (which I've heard brought up for discussion here). You need to pay attention to what elevator you're going into. The numbers are listed for what floors each elevator goes to. Our rooms were decent. We don't have too high of expectations and we're just happy to collapse into our beds each night exhausted from our sightseeing. ONE PROBLEM... not even solved yet since it just came up 3 days ago! We've been home from NYC for 6 weeks and just 3 days ago the Hilton charged $104 to my credit card! We didn't make any phone calls or even open the bar. I've left messages and have not gotten any response yet. I think I read this happening to someone else as well. MAKE SURE you check your statements even several weeks after you've checked out!
