  1. 2.5 Hollywood Beach 56 for 10/14-16 Hotel, beachfront, shuttle, comp. breakfast, food, pool, fitness and laundry. Also, what is a 3 star for 52. Customer Favorite in Ft. Laud. Near beach, Hotel,. Food, Swim, fitness.
  2. Can we say surprised? I wasnt expecting such a great hotel for the star level and price. Great location, right across the street from Briarwood Mall. Free Parking, free upgraded continental breakfast( pastries looked great, but didnt eat any). The beds were comfy( pillowtop mattress). Room was large, with a sofa, desk, chair, and wifi. Room had a small fridge as well. I would stay here again in a hot second!!
  3. April 03 we used hotwire and got the yankee clipper. We asked for an ocean front room and we got it. Now, the reason was because we checked in at checkin time( I think it was 3pm) and our room wasnt ready. They wanted us to wait another hour. I disagreed with that, stating pricelines policy and they offered us the upgraded room. We happily took it.
  4. Bid 35$ for 2.5, rejected. Second try 40 for a two star. Im ok with this, location is good, right across from briarwood mall. Website is showing 114.00 so I think I got a good deal. No Hilton Honors points, but ya cant have both I guess. Thereuare, I'll have a zingermans Georgia Ruben in your honor.
  5. I took your advice and bid 33 on a 2.5*. I was rejected :) Im almost ready to book the comfort in thru Expedia. they have a special rate of 75$ that includes up to 8 days of parking. We normally pay 7 bucks to park a day and we'll be gone a week. I was going to ask my friend to pick up my car so we wont have to pay, but I dont want to bug her, soooo, this might be the better option. Spouse and i would have to sleep in double bed though.
  6. thanks cheryl, Ill try that. We're just planning on sleeping there, cause we have an early morning flight. I dont know why I have 3 star stuck in my head. I was just rejected again at 40. for a 3 star.
  7. tried 32 and 35, both rejected. Added taylor-southgate as free-rebid.
  8. started at 40, used free rebids, 45 and 50 REJECTED. Bummer, I guess Ill have to use my hilton honors points now, or bid at airport.
  9. But dont forget the 12 dollars in mandatory valet parking each night.
  10. Thanks!! We're actually flying in from Ft. Lauderdale and we dont want to drive back to Canada at 9pm, so we're just using it to crash.
  11. rebid using taylor/southgate as free rebid, bid 38 and was successful. Detroit Marriott
  12. Wow, Im surprised. I've never been denied 35 at the airport.
  13. I won this for 35 as well. March 5th and 6th. Room was large, bed was comfortable. Valet parking only but since i have a handicap placard, parking was free. The gym was less than adequate. Two treadmills, one stairmaster, 1 piece of weight equipment. No free weights. Room came with a fridge. All in all, worth the price.
  14. I was hoping for the Hilton, but I was ok with this hotel. be aware, valet is 15$ a night, but they waived it for me because of the 100% satisfaction guarantee. ( a few problems, Ill write about in the hotel review section)
  15. based on this post. I bid on the courtyard for March 5th and 6th and won for 35.00. Should I start a new topic?
  16. Yes, first bid. I went to TOBB and saw someone else got this for april 15th, so I just tried 26 on the first time.( at least TOBB is good for something) I almost went with 25 but I dont have time to be futzing around with the internet while Im in California ( sunshine here I come!!) I called the hotel asap and requested a non-smoking king and told them Id be arriving really late. They said No problemo. I hope this doesnt sound snooty, but I hope I wont be dissapointed. I rarely bid on 2 stars, but I knew I would only be there for about 8hrs so I didnt want to bid up. Ill let you know how it was when I get back.
  17. one night. Im arriving after 1am so I didnt care the star level. Im checking out the next morning.
  18. We stayed here this past Saturday night. I booked 2 rooms back in July. Both accepted at the first bid of $35.00. I called 3 days ago and requested both king non-smoking rooms. I was told that all priceline rooms are always Kings( never heard that before). Checked in at 5pm, valet parked at an astonishing 20dollars plus tax. Self park is $15.00. I didnt have the time or patience to drive around looking for cheaper parking. The room was basic. Sink area is separate from the bathroom. The bed was the most uncomfortable bed I've ever slept in. :) We had a 7pm reservation at Il Fornello( excellent Italian food) for our anniversary dinner. We took a taxi there instead of dealing with the parking. Friends met us there and drove us back and checked in. This was around 9pm and they were given 2 queens smoking room. I told them I asked for a non-smoking king and that I confirmed that at check in and I was given the speach about "priceline doesnt guarantee bed type or smoking nonsmoking, blah, blah, blah. My friends took the smoking room and the manager offered us free breakfast which I thought was a nice gesture. The breakfast was one of the better buffets I've been too, much better than the doubletree at Detroit airport where we stayed 2 weeks ago. It cost 14.50CAD and had an omlet bar, oatmeal, cream of wheat, breakfast meats, fruits, cereals, breads, pancakes, waffles, etc. My friend made a comment that the hallways were dirty, stained carpet, etc. I used the workout room which was decent. Treadmills, stairmasters, one multi weight machine, elliptical machines, pool, and jacquzi. The pool is a narrow lap pool and its in the basement. The location is fabulous, Id stay here again for this price. We usually stay at an airport hotel and drive to TO for the day. I actually prefered this option better.
  19. Paid 35$. They accepted my Hilton Gold status, gave me an upgraded room( tiny bathroom though). Room included 2 free drink coupons and 2 free breakfast coupons.( you can order off breakfast menu or have buffet). The room had the new Sweet dream bed. Very comfortable, pillow top mattress, lots of pillows and 2 down comforters. The A/C wasnt working right so they sent someone up to fix it. Parking is Free. Well worth the price paid.
  20. NETFLIX 2 week free trial. check out up to 3dvd's at one time, mail back and you'll automatically get sent one from your list. If you cancel after 2 weeks, you wont be charged.
  21. Accepted first bid. Called hotel, added my Hilton Gold number and was told Id get an upgrade and free breakfast.
