  1. Might could have gotten this a few dollars cheaper but didn't have much time to play around with the last minute reservation.
  2. I was pleasantly surprised by winning this at $68 as I was told that February is a busy time and room rates are higher. Started at $64 for North Scottsdale 3.5*, added Apachee and raised to $66, added Scottsdale and bid of $68 was accepted. I was in charge of finding rooms for myself and 2 colleagues for meetings so fingers crossed this hotel doesn't disappoint. The website looks great (don't they all?) and they have pretty good reviews so I'm hopeful.
  3. So glad to get this hotel! Plenty of room, always clean. And with the free happy hour and free breakfast, it's an excellent value for our family. Of course I used the PRICELINE link. Thanks for all you guys do to help with bidding. Cheryl
  4. I've been trying to book something for over a week now, with no luck going as high as $85. This appears to be a new hotel and is not currently on the Better Bidding list. I feel fortunate to have found something reasonable with the Festival going on. 7/22-7/26 Hilton Garden Inn (92 Peter Street) $78 Lowest rate on their website was $135/night with advanced purchase. Thanks again for everything you do. I used the PRICELINE link, of course. Cheryl
  5. First bid accepted. Hyatt Place Primacy Parkway 1220 Primacy Parkway Memphis, TN 38119 $41 per night for 2 nights Of course I used the BetterBidding PRICELINE link. Thanks for all your help with this site. Cheryl
  6. First bid of $55 for 3* Airport area rejected. Dropped down to 2 /12* and $50. Accepted. Bid through your PRICELINE link, of course. Thanks for all you guys do to help us find low price hotels. Cheryl
  7. Absolutely. I'm attending a meeting and the rate at their hotel is $139/night. Much too rich for my blood! Overall, I'm very pleased. Thanks again.
  8. Started with 3.5* at $65 and played around adding a free rebid at that level and raising to $70 before dropping down to 3* and adding Hacks Crossing (no 3* hotels). The reviews are mixed on this hotel but the price is right. I think I read something about a remodeling so hopefully it will be fine. This (likely) hotel through HOTWIRE is 3.5* and has been around $69 so this is a few bucks cheaper. Thanks again for all you do to help us save money. Of course I used the PRICELINE link. Cheryl
  9. Now it's my turn to post my winning bid since my daughter was selected for GA All State Chorus! Started at $82 for 3.5*. Rejected but got the message to add $22. I rejected that and added free rebid Savannah West and raised to $87. Accepted! Best price on Marriott's website is $156. We stayed here last year for the same event and were thrilled to win it again. Much quieter than the hotels close to the Civic Center, which are full of school groups, so a better option for our family. Thanks for all the effort y'all put in to maintaining the site (and correcting my bad formatting of the title information). I've saved a lot of money by getting smart about bidding. Of course I used the PRICELINE link. Thanks again. Cheryl
  10. My friend just won this for the GA All State Band event weekend. Best rate on hotel website was $175 so she is very happy. It's a block away from the Civic Center so a great location and she was very pleased. Sorry, she did not know to bid using the link but I told her about it and she will next time. Cheryl
  11. Started at $60 for 3 1/2* Historic District. Added Gateway, $62 and 3* and was rejected. Added West, $66, also rejected. Added North and raised to $70 and was accepted at this hotel. There does not appear to be any additional parking fee and it includes a hot breakfast buffet. I am very pleased. Thanks for all your help. Cheryl
  12. This hotel was very nice. It is immediately off exit 68 I-4 (turn in at the blue gift souvenir shop or you'll miss the entrance). Our room had 2 queen Sleep Number beds (hint: do not play with the bed to see what happens when it gets to 0!) and a fold out couch in a small sitting area near the window. Very clean. Great location near the parks. Just one light down and make a left to the Downtown Disney area. The staff was very nice and gave great directions. A few blocks walk to restaurants and a grocery store. And yes, they do have complimentary cookies in the afternoon. My only complaint is the difficulty of getting in and out of the property. You cannot make a left due to the traffic pattern so must always make a right. Getting back in from that direction involves going under I-4 about half a mile up and making a U turn. Other than that, a nice hotel that has been coming up at an amazing value.
  13. Sorry, I misunderstood. The icons shown were smoke free, restaurant, fitness center, business center, pool and high speed internet. Thanks for clarifying the sleeping accomodations issue. Cheryl
  14. Yes, the amenities were the same as those listed on the Hotwire Toronto hotel list for this 3* hotel. Can you verify that by booking for 2 adults, 1 child I should be guaranteed two beds? Thanks for your help.
  15. I needed two beds as I'm traveling with my father so even though I may have been able to get slightly cheaper on Priceline, I wanted the certainty of bidding for 2 adults, 1 child and guaranteeing 2 beds (I hope- that's the way I interpreted the Hotwire guidelines!). I did my research and was pretty sure this was the hotel I'd get and am pleased. The location is great and the price is less than half of what I've been able to find elsewhere. Trip Advisor reviews are good. Of course I used the BB HOTWIRE link. Many thanks for everything y'all do to help us get a great value for our travel dollar.
  16. Just returned from 4 nights at this hotel. The standard Priceline room is what they call a petite Queen (one queen size bed). We were offered an upgrade to a deluxe King for $20 a night but since we were literally only sleeping in the room, it wasn't worth it to me. There is a $10 per stay (not per day) charge to access the pool and health club. Based on reading other reviews, I expected a closet size room but it was fine. Nice flat screen tv, desk with chair. Nice sized bathroom and closet. The room was clean and suited us just fine. The location at 222 Mason was centrally located. Directly across the street from the Hilton and Parc 55. Lots of restaurants in the area. 2 blocks to a cable car and buses were everywhere. One odd thing is the front desk checked us in for our flight and printed boarding passes as they had no public computer available for me to do this. I would have preferred to do it myself. No problems and would definitely recommend this hotel.
  17. Never thought we could get a hotel on the beach for the weekend this cheap! First bid accepted. I used the PRICELINE link. Many thanks for all you folks at this board do to help us save money!
  18. I've been playing around with this bid for a while. Started SOMA $75, added USE $78, won after adding USW $80 (any of these zones would be fine). This strategy hasn't been successful previously but I had enough time so figured I'd keep trying. This seems like quite a place with good reviews so I'm psyched. I used the BB PRICELINE link. Many thanks for the great info you provide.
  19. Wow... what an amazing place. It's located within a gated community at the end of Isle of Palms. Short walk to the beach. Beautiful decor. Wonderfully trained, very polite and helpful staff. Aveda products in the bathroom. Room was gorgeous. I can't think of any negatives about the hotel or my stay.
  20. I am super-excited! After having no luck with reasonable rates for the Historic District, I rethought my plans and decided to try for the beach. 4* Mt Pleasant- Isle of Palms $80, rejected They offered rebid with a $22 increase Added W. Charleston and increased bid to $86 ACCEPTED! This looks like an amazing hotel and I'm sure I'll be pleased. Thanks so much for all your help and, of course, I used the PRICELINE link from this board.
  21. I didn't save the search and I don't remember which hotel was $135- sorry. I see what you mean about there being lower prices for Thursday evening. Seems like there's plenty of availability and I'm willing to keep trying. I can stay in pretty much any area but not willing to give up on the Historic District just yet! Thanks so much for all your help. Each time I bid, I use the PRICELINE link.
  22. I am unsure why I'm having so much trouble getting 3* in the Historic District for this time period. I have been trying every 24 hours for days, going as high as $87. Two rooms, maybe? I'm seeing lots of availability. Prices from $135 up on Priceline set rate and Hotwire for 3* so my bid is usually enough to get something. I prefer not to go over $90/room/night. Going that high, I usually don't have a problem. Thanks so much for any help you can give. Any ideas?
  23. Hotel website showed $159. I used the PRICELINE link from this site. Cheryl
  24. Rates have been very high and availability less than stellar due to GA Allstate Chorus being in town this weekend. I was thrilled to get this hotel. Hotel website shows rates of $189. I, too, was banned from the other board and was thrilled to find this one. Many thanks for the valuable service you provide. I will definitely use your PRICELINE link when I bid in the future. Cheryl
