I just bid $80 for a resort in San Juan for one night 1/10/09. My bid was accepted and with the $22 taxes comes to $103. I think I should accept it, but am just wondering what the catch is. It just seems too good to be true. Thahks!

Yes, i would like to place a bid for a 4 star resort in San Juan. If I want two rooms, do I do anything different? Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for the quick response. On Priceline, when I select 4 star and put in a bid for $80, the bid is accepted with $22 in taxes the total comes to $102. Would the hotel end up being less than a 4 star because of the low bid? Again, this is for one night 1/10/09 before a cruise. My max bid would be $150...still would save over $150 to $200 for the night.

I've never bid using Priceline before. I need one night in San Juan on 1/10/09 and would like to stay at the Marriott Stellaris. From reading many posts, I gather I do not have a choice in the hotel, but are there any tips to narrow my chances for getting the Marriott? How can I be sure I will get a resort on the ocean? Can I request a 4 star resort oceanfront in San Juan? I see from your San Juan 4 star lists that there are only four 4 star resorts. So I should have a 25% chance of getting the Marriott Stellaris, correct? I know it's only one night, but can I go wrong with any of the 4 four resorts available in San Juan? Sorry if this doesn't make sense. I'm used to researching variuos resorts and chossing the one I want. I think it's strange to be bidding on an unkown and it's binding. Thank you.
