I used your PRICELINE link! Total cost with fees $128.46. Booked direct through PRICELINE is $209 plus fees. Booked through hotel website is $254 +. Parking and internet are extra. We are flying out of Ft. Lauderdale on 02/07 post a Miami cruise so I was just looking for a 4* less than an hour drive from FLL and google maps is telling me this is 53 minutes away, so I'm happy. I had been bidding on Ft. Lauderdale first to try and be closer to the airport, but was bidding up to $125 for a 3* so I thought I'd give Miami a shot since it's fairly close. I tried to lowball so my bidding process is a bit lengthy, but here we go.

Booked through Priceline: $169+ a night.

I wanted a 4* in the downtown zone.
Bid zone 12 - Downtown - $66 - rejected - Was prompted that a $105 bid would win. I decided to keep trying for less.

My husband is stuck in San Antonio due to rain so he rescheduled his flight for the morning. He needed an airport hotel for tonight. I used your PRICELINE link. :)
Bid 1: Zone 10: San Antonio Airport 3 1/2* - $39 - rejected
Bid 2: added Zone 5: Ft. Sam Houston (2* free rebid zone) - $41 - rejected

Total charges: $75.71 "You saved 42%" Hotel going for $104 if booked directly.
My husband has an early flight on 05/31 so he only wanted a 4* DFW North. I started my PRICELINE bid with that zone at $50, added a zone with no 4* hotels, and upped my bid by $2 each rebid until I hit something. Total: charge $79.36.
I'm pretty sure the $69 PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal for DFW North 4* is this hotel as well, so I still saved a few bucks by bidding. There is both a Valero and a Denny's right across the street.
Most importantly, my husband is happy with the win. :)
I used your PRICELINE link. I wanted a 4* in one of the following zones: Galleria, SMU, Market Center/ Love Field, or Downtown. Prices have been just getting steeper for those dates, so I thought I should try and land something for a decent price while I could.
I bid on 4* or above.
Bid 1: $71 Zone 16 - Galleria
Bid 2: $72, aded Zone 28 - SMU
Bid 3: $73, added Zone 12 - Downtown

Total charge: $316.98. PRICELINE says that I saved 28%. Self Park is $14 and Valet is $19. The reviews are mixed on Trip Advisor and Yelp. Hopefully it will be allright. :)
I used your PRICELINE link... I was bidding for a 3 1/2 or 4 * in either the Galleria or Downtown area. I started my bid at $50, added zones that did not have a 3 1/2 or better, and increased my bid by $1 each time until I got my win!
I used your [url=http://www.betterbidding.com/clicks/click.php?afsrc=1&id=40]PRICELINE[/url] link. :) I realized Galveston's Mardi Gras started 01/29 and was needing a hotel for one night pre-cruise. I decided to go for a 3 1/2* in the Galleria area:
Bid $50 - 3 1/2* Galleria - rejected
Bid $52 - added Zone 10 (highest star rating in zone 2 1/2*) - rejected
Bid $54 - added Zone 7 (highest star rating in zone 2 1/2*) - accepted
Total with taxes, fees, and cancellation protection = $73.59 "You Saved 37%"
Hotel is $9 self park, $15 valet, and free wi-fi
I think I got a pretty good deal for Friday night near the Galleria booked 2 months out.
I used your link. I ended up with what I think is a fair price. Total charges $60.32, Savings of 53% per Price.line. I was not picky about which zones; I just knew I wanted north Dallas for cheap. :)

Very happy with my win! I saved 73%! I used the BB PRICELINE link. :) Total charges $98.58. Priceline has it listed at $299 a night if booked directly.
I wanted a 3 1/2 or higher in zones 12 (Downtown), 23 (Market Center) or 28(SMU). I only used re-bid zones that did not currently show a 3 1/2* property. I started bidding at $60 and upped $1 with each added zone until I hit $72, then I started upping my bid $2. 17 bids later I landed the deal.
I used your [url=http://www.betterbidding.com/clicks/click.php?afsrc=1&id=40]PRICELINE[/url] link. 1 bid 4* Houston Galleria zone. Happy with the win! :)

We may have not landed a huge savings, but after reading the reviews and hearing about the hotel offering what sounds like a decent free breakfast and free dinner with beer/ wine I am very happy with our winning hotel.

I saw what I was pretty sure was this hotel listed as a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal for $93 a night and decided to bid (I used your PRICELINE link) and see if I could get it a bit cheaper. I'm very happy with the win, it appears to be a very nice hotel in a great location!
