Selected 4* Customer Favorite and used icons as a guide to get Beverly Hilton. I will use my Hotwire $30 coupon from the Entertainment Travel book to lower the price by $30. Thank you for the helpful info on this site.
Bid $40 for a 4* in Sunnyvale-Santa Clara area under San Jose-rejected, bid $37 for a 3*-rejected, bid $34 for a 2 1/2*-rejected...added Redwood City area for a free rebid and bid $40 for a 2 1/2* and got upgraded to a 3*..the Sheraton Sunnyvale on Mathilda. Has anyone stayed at this hotel before? How far is it from 101?
Bid $40 for 2* in Medford, Oregon. Received a counter offer to add $12 to the bid. Since it was for the next day, we bid $52 and got the Fairfield Inn. It included breakfast.
Sounds like a great trip! The areas I would pick are Beverly Hill first and Hollywood-West Hollywood second.Things to do in Beverly Hills - Highlights on Rodeo Drive are Harry Winstons & Tiffany's jewelers. Spagos or Beverly Hills Hotel are restaurants I enjoy going to when I am in the area...breakfast or lunch are more affordable. In Hollywood, just going up and down Hollywood and Sunset Blvd are experiences. You can get free tickets to many shows and pilots on www.audiencesunlimited.com or www.tvtix.com. Also there are many studio tours...I've heard Paramount and Warner Bros. are great....and of course Universal Studios but that takes a whole day. I think the website is www.seeingstars.com which tells of different studio tours. Hope this helps.
I'm new to this site so I am posting a priceline bid 1 week later. Bid $70 a night on first try it was accepted. Bid for 2 rooms - 1 night only. This is a 4* hotel in the Beverly Hills/Westwood/Century City area. Self-Parking is $21 per day and Valet Parking is $24 per day. They will drive you within a 3 mile radius with their shuttle which I believe is complimentary but you can walk to Rodeo Drive or Century City.
