My wife and I stayed for 3 days at the Rozen Plaza at the end of Feb 2011 and luved it!!!!! Great pool...excellent service.....room was very nice. Am looking forward to staying there again in the future. Fish

I've never pricelined Jacksonville before. I've reviewed recent results and quickly realized that there doesn't seem to be a lot of availability in this area. I need Wed, Thurs and Friday nite in Jacksonville Mar 30-April 2. I'd prefer 3.5* or 4. I'd like to be in the 50-70 dollar range. Any suggestions? Is there any hope for me? Thanks Fish

I'm at Rosen Plaza now and am really pleased with the Hotel. Been here since yesterday and like everything about it. Customer Service has been excellent. Room is spacious, clean very well done, including flat screen plasma. Pool area is very nice and restaurants are reasonable with varied menus. $12.95/24 hours for High Speed. Fish

Used the info on Betterbidding to start my bidding at $41 and was successful. I used the PRICELINE link to start my bidding. Thanks for the help. Not what I was trying for but, the price is right. Fish

You're welcome; I forgot to mention that I used the link on this page to bid at PRICELINE. Fish

Been bidding $60.00 for 4* in Orlando for one nite February 18th. Priceline came back suggesting that I add $15 to my bid and bid immediately and not wait 24 hours. I logged out and added a zone with no 4* and bid $65.00 and was successful I am happy with the 4* Hilton Sea World - Intl. Drive - Convention Center. Fish

Long time since I used Priceline-used the PRICELINE link. On my way to Myrtle Beach Friday and needed hotel in Richmond. Surprised to get this location, first try........pretty good reviews for this price. I'm happy. Fish

My friend just won this 3.5* Mariott Ft Lauderdale North but didn't want to post his win. I offered to post his win for him. Mike

Been trying, for a 4* Downtown (Renaissance) using PRICELINE link for about a month at $100 with no success. Was also trying for Hyatt Place 3* between $60 and $75 with no luck. Decided to raise offer for Hyatt to $90 and got it on first offer today. Probably left a few bucks on table because I was a little lazy this morning. I'm happy with results-good location, shuttle etc. Fish

Been playing around for a week-probably should have waited until next month. I thinlk that it might be slow this year and I might have done better. It was a Compact. PRICELINE link for Priceline. Thanks Fish

No problem; I used the PRICELINE link. Fish

First bid-very pleased. Good location for going to Leafs game. Fish

Tried at $70, and failed, added St Catherines and tried $80 and was accepted. I'm happy with this one. Total cost after fees $98.64 US

Just returned from my cruise; our stay at the Courtyard was great. Wonderful hotel, pool and restaurant. (reasonable); would love to stay there again. On check-in I learned that they were running at 50% occupancy, if this helps anyone. Fish

Had backup on points at Yankee Trader and the Holiday Inn Convention Centre Very pleased - first bid at $80/nite based on what I read here. I used Savingsbarn as usual Thanks Fish

My daughter just got Mariott Yorkville Downtown Toronto for $70/nite January 5/08. First bid was successful. Fish

I just booked Holiday Inn Express Convention Center and Yankee Clipper as back up using points. Will continue to watch in case 4*'s go on sale closer to my Emerald Princess departure. Thanks for your help. Fish

Thanks, I think that I will continue bidding FLL but will start to investigate Miami locations. If I start bidding Miami I will start a new thread. Fish

Keep bidding up to $150 for 4* Beach or Downtown...no luck. Beginning to question whether I need to be that close to FLL downtown/beach. I'm talking 2 days pre-cruise could, almost stay anywhere in FLA Just would like Resort like ambiance within 1.5 or 2 hours of Port Everglades. Any suggestions on where to get resort or 4* at good price but avoid the extremely high prices that FLL seems to getting this year for mid-January? Thanks Fish

Tried 4* Beach/Downtown again....no luck $111, $121,$131 and $141 Will try again. Too early to worry. Fish

Only tried 4* downtown and beach this time and used Miramar, Pompano Beach and airport for re-bidding. $101 $111 $121 $131 Rejected, I'll keep trying....got lottsa time Fish

Only tried Downtown this time...I really like the Renaissance. $100-$120-$130-$140 ........all rejected
