Hi yellowdog, thanks for the welcome and response. Based off a quick hotwire search, it doens't look like cosmo is a match on there for my dates. on hotwire 5* strip south are as follows - $241 a night ($350 originally) 90% reccomendation Free parking Free Internet Suite Smoke Free Fitness Business Center Pool High Speed Internet Golf Spa Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accesible In Room Accessible Accessible Bathroom Roll In Shower $257 a night ($369 originally) Resort Free Parking Casino Fitness Center Pool Restaurants Business Center High Speed Internet Golf Spa Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accesible In Room Accessible Accessible Bathroom Handicapped Parking Roll In Shower So it looks like priceline is my best bet (no pun intended :)). As I said, I dont necesarily need Cosmo, so not a big deal. Just want nice 5* (not trump). Was just wondering what my bidding should start at and the best processes to take to get the best deal(first time using priceline ever).
