  1. I just booked this with the help of the BiddingHelper.com and the Better Bidding Hotwire Coupon code.  I was about to book the likely Marriott Waikiki Beach but saw the Hilton Garden Inn possibility without a resort fee.  I'm happy with the result because I saved a few dollars over booking on the Hilton site.  Thanks.

  3. I started bidding for a Resort room for the following day at $95 in San Juan. I was offered a rebid at $124, took it because of my usual last minute bidding, and was awarded the Conrad San Juan Condado Plaza.

    Rooms: 1

    Nights: 1

    Room Subtotal: $124.00

    Taxes & Fees: $22.69

  4. Bid $95 and was offered a counterbid of $108. Since I was bidding on somewhat short notice I bid the $108 immediately.

    I am happy with the results as the price that I'm paying is less than the hotel's website and less than I paid on my previous visit arriving without reservations.

  6. Used the BetterBidding link to HOTWIRE got the Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale Airport - South for $65 for one night.

    3* and the area listed is Fort Lauderdale International Airport.

    Amenities were Smoke Free Rooms, Airport Shuttle, Complimentary Breakfast, Fitness Center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business Center, Laundry Facilities, High-speed Internet Access, Golf Nearby.

    Rate per night:$65.00

    I ususally look for the Hyatt Place North, but, it was over $100 for this period. The Hyatt Place Airport South will be a good substitute and allow me to try another area of Fort Lauderdale.

    Thanks BetterBidding !!

  7. I was hoping to win a bid at the Hyatt Place Fort Lauderdale North, a hotel that I am usually able to get on Hotwire for about $59, but was running over $100 for this period.

    Began by unsuccessfully bidding 3* Downtown at $45 and added the free zone Fort Lauderdale Airport North at $50, which was also unsuccessful. In the next round of bids, I bid 3* for Downtown at $55 and was upgraded to a 4*.

  9. It is indeed Il Lugano. I decided that may be a good choice - it will also give me a chance to try out the Fort Lauderdale/Broward County public bus service. There are some issues with Il Lugano on TripAdvisor, but, they seem to center mostly around the staff, and, not the accomodations.

    Obtained some additional good information about this hotel from www.cruisecritic.com.

  11. At the Miami Airport Marriott I handed the desk clerk my drivers license, my credit card and a folded $20 bill and when they attempted to hand the $20 bill back, I said, "No that is for you, I know that all of your rooms are nice, but, pick one that I would like."

    I was assigned, on a Priceline reservation, a very nice Junior Suite with sitting area and small kitchen which was bigger and quieter than the usual room.

    Well worth the gratuity, and a nice upgrade for 2 nights.

  12. In the 3rd day of bidding, starting at $45 and adding $1-2 with free rebid zones, I was successful with a bid of $51. On the first 2 days of bidding $45, I was offered a room if I increased the bid by $13, but refused and continued unsuccessfully bidding free rebid zones.

    This trip is a pre-cruise stay and I was hoping for the Miami Airport Wyndham or Maimi Airport Marriott, since I have stayed at both hotels and like the facilities at each hotel.
