Used the BB PRICELINE link to start purchase. I made several bids starting at $31 & increasing to $40.

Hotel Indigo is VERY pet-friendly. Let them know you are bringing your dog and they will provide a doggy bed and biscuits. They even hold a Canine Happy Hour on some evenings.

Great minds. I was just looking for this exact question/answer myself. Here's what I am doing: Looking at date-specific available 4* hotels in Atlanta on Priceline. Taking those results, I'll visit the actual hotel website to determine their pet-policy. For example, the 4* W in Atlanta is listed as available and pet-friendly so that's a match. Once I find a match, I'll look through the Priceline board here to determine how people bid to receive the W in Atlanta and then, I'll take the chance and place the bid according to the way the winners' bid. It's going to be a risk, but if you are up for it (and I am) it may pay off quite well.

Thank you so much for your help. Via your link to HOTWIRE I made the following purchase: 4* - San Juan, PR - InterContinental $124 - 1 night, 2 people Thank you again for having such patience.

I am using your HOTWIRE link for research and for purchasing. Additionally, I'm still working on my "Want Intercontenal" thread on your Priceline forum, but this property (listed as a CONDO) keeps coming up when I check on Hotwire. Do you have any idea which property this is; I've listed ALL of the amenities below: 3-star hotel in Dorado This hotel features the following amenities: Resort Beachfront Studio Daily Housekeeping Air Conditioning Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Front Desk 24-hour Front Desk Laundry Facilities Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby Condo

Booked with your HOTWIRE link. 3-star hotel near Hartsfield Intl Airport ATL 1 night & 2 adults - Fri, Apr 24, 2009 Amenities: This hotel features the following amenities: Smoke Free Rooms Airport Shuttle Complimentary Breakfast Fitness Center Pool(s) Business Center High-speed Internet Access

THANKS! Using your link for Hotwire HOTWIRE I did as you instructed and here is everything: 4-star hotel in San Juan Area This hotel features the following amenities: Resort Beachfront Casino Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities High-speed Internet Access Tennis Nearby Spa Services The price is now $139.00 and I noticed this at the bottom, right-hand-side of the page: "This hotel typically charges all guests a resort fee regardless of how the room is booked. The hotel collects this fee of about $14 per room per night directly from you, so it won't show in your Hotwire

Yes. I copied it from the webpage.

Bid was accepted by Savmor. Thanks! When researching and purchasing, I always use your links to HOTWIRE and PRICELINE.

I don't have a maximum budget. I was hoping to get the Intercontinental for as little as possible. For a Saturday night, I'm expecting to pay less than $130.00. I'm on Hotwire via your link HOTWIRE and they are offering this hotel for $119.00 San Juan area 4* Resort Beachfront Casino -Property offers a full-service casino accessible from the lobby. Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Does that sound like the IC to you? Also, do you know how much the IC charges for their "resort fee" - sounds as if it could get expensive. Additionally, we mainly want beachfront as we will be staying at the Sheraton in OSJ for our after-cruise evening. Would you suggest a different procedure for securing a comfortable beachfront hotel in the SJ area? I'll update the other thread now. I always use your links when searching/purchasing: PRICELINE and/or HOTWIRE

Thank you for reminding me about the Las Vegas car rental thread. I posted my final result there. We wish to stay for one night, Saturday, April 25, 2009. We will be leaving on a cruise the next day. Thank you for any advice and I will, as always, use your links for PRICELINE and/or HOTWIRE when purchasing.

Ended up going through PRICELINE and paid $11.95 per day. Thanks again for all of the assistance.

The Sheraton Old San Juan 100 Brumbaugh Street

$20.95 per day. I've looked at Hotwire and I can't figure out how to bid on vehicles. I only see the list they generate for you...

Never bid before & need some advice, please. I'm trying to rent a vehicle in Las Vegas for 2/14 - 2/19 - that's five days. I've scoured all of the websites and the lowest published price I've seen is $17.00 p/day for an intermediate. Would bidding $10.00 p/day for a compact, picked-up from and returned to Las Vegas - Mccarran Intl, NV, be a decent first bid for an intermediate car? How do I ensure that unlimited miles are part of the deal? Priceline seems easier to use than Hotwire - any thoughts? Thanks for any advice!

What a terrific thread. :) I'm contemplating my first car bidding ever and this is useful information. I never even thought about them trying to unload a boat of a vehicle on me when I requested a mid-size. :) Since you guys are obviously in the know, may I run something by you? I don't know if this is the right place so I'm going to assume it probably isn't and I'll apologize in advance. I'm trying to rent a vehicle for five days in Las Vegas for this time next month. I've scoured all of the websites and the lowest published price I've seen is $17.00 p/day for an intermediate. Would bidding $10.00 p/day for a compact, picked-up and returned to Las Vegas - Mccarran Intl, NV, be automatically refused? What would you bid for an intermediate car and please keep in mind I've never done this before so I am as new as new can be. Priceline seems easier to use - any thoughts? Thanks for any advice!
