Ended up getting a *3.5 Crowne Plaza in the area of Trevose - Bensalem for $55 / night.

Looking for 2 rooms for one night. I bid for City Line at 3.5* at $70 - not accepted. I added Brooklawn (only has 1* max) at $75 - not accepted I added Cinnaminson (only has 2* max) at $85 - not accepted. Is it possible that there is nothing available? Or am I just bidding too low?

I wanted to spend about $250 per ticket at any of the airports nearby. I am seeing tickets in the 400+ range at full price.

Hi, I'd like to fly from NYC to Florida on the following dates: 2/18 - 2/23 Can someone help me with Priceline airfare using "Name Your Own Price"? I clicked on the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links. Thanks.

I also got excited when I saw the price that the other person got. I bid today starting from 50 - 63 and I didn't win. My dates were 8/28 - 8/31

Thank you! Everything worked out fine at the end. Had I refreshed myself with your great instructions on betterbidding.com I wouldn't have been stuck in this situation! Thanks for a great website!

OK - here is the story, in hindsight I guess I made a mistake by adding 2.5 stars to my criteria. I got Hotel Zero. The price I got was $50 + tax for one night stay 2/25 - 2/26. I called the hotel directly to request 2 beds in the room and I was told that I would need to pay an additional $30! I gambled and lost.

I see it now. I was in the wrong tab. Once I switched to "best deal - name your own price" it came up.

I'm looking for a hotel in the Lower Fairfield County area, but when I enter my city as Greenwich, CT or Stamford, CT I don't see this area listed. I'm not familiar with the area. Can someone tell me which city and area to choose to get a hotel in this area? Thanks!

Thank you for this great website! I used the PRICELINE link for my purchase.

Just wanted to follow up... We had an awesome time and the hotel does feel like 4 stars! Thank you so much!

Put in $70 4*, got accepted right away for Philadelphia Hyatt at Bellevue $70 x 2 + tax 29.68 = 169.68 I mistakenly put it in for 1 room when I meant to request 2 rooms. Priceline couldn't help add another room as per their policy. They recommended Hotwire to guarantee the same hotel. I took a risk and bid on Priceline again at $75 this time because I was nervous! Put in $75 4*, got accepted right away for Philadelphia Hyatt at Bellevue - THANK GOD!! $75 x 2 + tax 31.30 = $181.30 PLUS all day parking is $27.00 as per hotel I used the PRICELINE link. Thanks for such a great website!
