If you could have pushed the bidding a bit higher, you would have easily got something. There are always rooms to get on 3 star in Anaheim it seems.

In the non-summer months, your sub-$50 bid would have probably sufficed.

How long before the stay did you bid and get this great price?

Congrats Herren911,

I like staying at that hotel. I hope I can manage to get it this summer too.

Hey, if you join the Hyatt Gold Passport, you can call 1800 CHECK IN on your check in day, early that morning, and tell them what kind of room you want and they'll give you your room number. I always ask for South Tower, for it was recently renovated (though I think most standard rooms are in the south anyway).

I stayed there from Priceline before. It has a beautiful lobby. The rooms are so-so. They look nice, but there is not a lot of seating. I like staying there though, when I get it on Priceline, for it's a fantastic value.

Hi.

I have a question about Priceline.

Say I bid and win a night at a hotel.

Can I go back to price-line and bid on the same night again, trying to get the same place, or will it tell me I have to wait so many hours?

Nice deals.

What does everyone think of this Doubletree?

Also, do you have to pay their $10 a night or whatever, even if you don't have a car with you?

I ask because I'm probably going to get 2 rooms, and I was curious if I'd have to pay some kind of resort fee at check-in, on both rooms, or just one?

You will have nothing to worry about with three people. Call 1-800-CHECK-IN

Hi everyone.

Just thought I'd follow up that I did join Hyatt Gold Passport. The online system didn't let me add the Priceline reservation to my Gold Passport membership, but I sent an email to gold passport, with my Gold passport number and hotel reservation number, and they were able to put it on there for me. I obviously won't earn points on the priceline stay, but any other charges while I'm there will count towards my points.

I don't care about points though. I joined on the recommendation above, so I can now use 1800-CHECKIN to check in and hopefully get my two bed room. They told me I can call as early was 6am CST, but I find that hard to believe.

I need internet access, while I'm there, and I'm willing to pay the $10 per day, if I have to. However, I've read some have succeeded picking up wireless for free, from nearby hotels. Perhaps, I'll be lucky enough to pick that up too. :)

I still feel a little nervous about going to the registration desk, with the three of us. Will they say anything to me? "You should only have two!!! Argh!" Could they add charges? I accept that we are not guaranteed a room type, but three people who will hardly be in the room, isn't really a crunch or anything (no matter what room is given).

This sure is a great resource. I'm sure to recommend this site to friends and book future travel through the links.

bbbb-

Thanks for the information. Do they really let you check in over the phone, if you booked on Priceline? Has anyone used that program to check in, if they booked on priceline? That sounds great cause then just I could go to the desk to get the key too.

Also, check in is at 3pm, so should I just call right at 3pm? I hear this hotel charges, if you check in early. Should 3pm be early enough to get the two beds?

I'll ask for the south tower too, but obviously, just having two beds is most important. Thanks for the information everyone has provided!!! Very helpful here.

thank you. :) I'm just nervous about having 3 people and needing 2 beds. Hopefully with it being a Thursday they'll have plenty of rooms. Should I put in this request now, or wait until check in?

Hi Guys. You saved me so much money!!!

I took a *big risk* but it paid off.

Got the Hyatt!!

Dec 15 to 17 (2 Nights).

Offered $33 (cause I saw lots of people were offering that). Then I increased to $35 by adding Anaheim Hills. It was accepted.

However, we're a party of three. Will the Hyatt let us stay there even though we booked through Priceline, if we have three people? I sure hope so. Please let me know!!!

This was the only hotel I wanted, and I got it. I just hope it is ok, to have 3 people.

Also, can I call them with non smoking, south tower request, or is that not allowed?

Thanks.

I would love to stay at this hotel, but I'm new to all of this.

You guys don't actually know what hotel you're going to get on Priceline, right?
