Sorry about this - the dates are wrong - we stayed March 10 -12 2009

Original bid of $38 rejected PL came back with add $11 for a total of $49 - Added Everett and increased to $40 accepted. Total cost for two days $99.47. Used BB PRICELINE links

First tried $40 downtown - told could have room for $52. Added Airport area and increased bid to $45 - accepted - total of $60.24. Last minute try! Used BB PRICELINE link

Original bid of $50 for 4* rejected. 2nd bid $45 for 3.5* rejected. 3rd bid added area Lawndale (nothing above 2*) and raised bid back to $50 accepted. Total $237.73 for 4 nights. Had earlier bid same for Friday night and also acepted at same hotel and at same rate but decided to spend week at LAX rather than move to downtown. Used bb PRICELINE links!

Original bid $37 rejected, pl came back with plus $10 offer (total $47). Added Everett - no 3* hotels - with bid of $40 - accepted. Total price $53.03 Used Betterbidding PRICELINE links.

Original bid $50 for 4* rejected; 2nd bid $50 for 3.5* accepted. Total cost is $64.42

Bid Area 5 South Park Executive 3.5* for $45 came back asking for $13 more or total of $58 went back adding area 3 Kannapolis which had no 3.5* and bid $50 which was accepted. Accepted bid was for Airport which is a different area than I had requested but was fine for us. Total was $240.30 or $60 a night including taxes and fees - website shows $169 a night. Luv this site - used the board's PRICELINE link!!! (and I think I'm getting pretty good at the angles!)

Originally bid $50 for 4* rejected; came back with 3.5* at $55 and accepted. Taxes and Service Fees $15.13. Used betterbidding PRICELINE link. Not real smart should have kept the $50 bid but was in a hurry and just goofed. We stay at LAX the night before flying out - most of the rental car agencies are within walking distance. Take the car back - no need for parking and take shuttle in morning.

Was trying for something near airport - this is 6.2 miles. Also has parking fee of $20 extra. Total is $40 + $11.86 service fee and tax. Accepted on first bid Regular "senior" price is shown as $110. Thought last time we were able to specify airport which is not now available so took a chance. Did use betterbidding PRICELINE link.

First try - Taxes $13.14 for total of $63.14 - very nice hotel - complimentary self-park this stay

Started out bidding on 3.5* $60 rejected; added 3* $60 rejected; added 2.5* $55 accepted total for 10 nights $628.62 - average of $63 a night - website price average $92 as weekends were more expensive. Country Inn & Suites are only 2.5* that I could find in either Ventura or Oxnard. We wanted Ventura as working there. Will see how much to upgrade to actual suite when we arrive. Happy with this either way.
