Tim in Hollywood

Thanks for the replies. I appreciate it. I think the $53 mentioned in my original post may have been misinterpreted. What I meant was that any bid I make will effectively have $53 added to it. I've seen reports of wins in this zone (Loews, in particular) for around $100. That would be great. However, when an additional $53 + plus probably $10 in tax is added by the hotel PER DAY (for parking and resort fees), it makes the "deal" much less appealing. Will definitely use the links next time I make Price.Line or Hot.Wire bid...though likely somewhere without the potential of being gouged for an additional $60+ per night. Thanks again!

I think I have the bidding, re-bidding down. Unfortunately, I'll have to bid a bit lower than normal, since there are $53/night in fees ($28 parking + $25 resort). If this is incorrect, please let me know. I have another question that I hope you can provide some advice. All Loews hotels have a "All children under 18 years stay free of charge when using existing beds" policy. Priceline provides for double-occupancy. If we take our two pre-school age kids, are we likely to run into any difficulty from the hotel (either at check-in or during our stay)? Thanks, Tim
