Looks like a good deal. Best rate on Marriott website is $159 for same dates. Would have been delighted with somewhere downtown, but reallistically didn't expect that.

Needed somewhere relatively close to the Marriott Hotel and Marina (attending a major event there). This one was easy to figure out because it is also listed as one of the package hotels for San Diego with same amenities. Best rate on Holiday Inn website was $159 - $179 for the same dates. Might have got better value on Priceline but could not risk winning somewhere further away. Holiday Inn San Diego-On The Bay, CA (Midscale) 1355 N.

I am a regular Hotwire user but had not used Priceline because I have a Canadian Visa Card and they did not accept it previously. Anyway, I needed a room for 2 nights in May and Hotwire did not have much of a selection. Offered $50 for a 2.5* on Priceline and won the 3* Radisson :) Hotel: Radisson Hotel Ottawa Parliament 402 Queen St Ottawa, Ontario K1R 5A7 Canada 613-236-1133 Check-In Date: Saturday, May 20, 2006 Check-Out Date: Monday, May 22, 2006 Price: $50/night
