Been looking all week and finally got this 2 days before arrival. Got it for $58 but checking back periodically price pop up $57 a couple of times. Still happy with the $58, total with tax $72.06. Parking is $12. Amenities: Pet friendly, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Spa services, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower.

Started bidding at $51 and after rebids of $55, $60, $65 was accepted at $70. Listed rates are $129. Used Fisherman's Wharf, South SF, Union Square East and West as rebid zones.

Price on Hilton.com was $129. Starting bidding at $40. Was counter at $53. Increased bid to $45 and then won at $48 with the re-bids. Nice hotel, clean, easy to find. Room assigned had 2 double beds.

Found out I needed another room so tried this time for Seaside. Started bid at $46 and immediately won Holiday Inn Express. Seems like a much better hotel than 2.5* Best Western Park Crest that I won in another bid for same date for a lower price. Listed rate was $85 and found out the room had 2 double beds so no extra money.

First to start off I began at $45 and was countered at $60. Raised bid to $51 by using Pacific Grove as free rebid. Accepted bid at Best Western Park Crest Inn. Called the motel and found out that the room only had a queen bed and would need to pay extra $20 for 2 queens. The listed price was $59.99 for the date so not much of a savings.

Made first bid at $50 and won Hilton Santa Clara. Listed rate for the night was $119. Only staying the night of 1/15/11. Very happy.

Just won the Marriott Courtyard Carlsbad for $75, total $89 including taxes for August 8-9, 2010. Started at $55 then went up to $75. Rebid using Escondido, National City, San Ysidro and finally Coronado.

Started my bidding for different dates, 8/18-8/21, at $60 raising to $80 but no luck. Changed my dates to 8/19-8/21 and started at $60 again. Accepted at $80 after free rebids. Actual rates are $189 from Westin website so I'm happy.

Started bidding at $60, counteroffer $17 more. Bid next day at $62, same counteroffer. Waited another day bid $65, same counteroffer. Final bid of $69 accepted after waiting 24 hours. Rate on Hilton website is $129.

The amenities include: Breakfast Business Center Pool Airport Shuttle Fitness Center Laundry The lowest direct book from the La Quinta web site was $84 and $63 from Hotels.com so a little bit of savings.

Just got the La Quinta Inn at the airport for $54, 7/29-7/31/08.
