I think I have talked myself out of the hotel Califorinia due to t he fact that september is the warmest month in SF and having no AC so I have been going for a 4 star. I have went from $165 up to $195 adding union square east, west, Fishermens warf, financial district and still got the hook. I am a tad disspointed in priceline since both hotwire and Expedia Unpublished Rate Hotels have 4 stars in union square east and west for just under $200. I would like to get my hotel on Priceline for my rewards pts. Any advice? Thanks much for your input.
