  1. I started off requesting a 2.5 star in Fullerton/Brea for $45. I've had a couple of other stays where I started at $43 and PL came back saying for $50 I could win the room. Both of those times were Fullerton Marriot. My logic was that maybe if I got closer to $50, I could win it outright and not have to increase the price.

    However, this time PL came back and said if I increased by $7 to $52, I could win it. It ended up being Fairfield Inn Placentia. I haven't stayed at this hotel before, so it will be interesting to be somewhere new. I will say that for 2.5 stars, it seems impressive to have fridges/microwaves and a free hot breakfast. Fullerton Marriott had none of those features and it is rated 3.5 star.

    I used the PRICELINE link, thanks BB for all your work :)

  2. We liked this deal so much last week, I tried again with the same strategy and got the same deal for this weekend. Same as last weekend, I started at $43 and got the option to try again for $50. We travel to Anaheim almost every weekend and I will keep doing this if they will keep giving me the room for 50 bucks! It's a super clean hotel with very comfortable beds and friendly staff. I can barely get a cheesy Motel 6 for this price :)

  3. Winning details:

    Requested 3* for $45, $46 and $54 for 3/13/10 to 3/20/10 and got a reply on the last one to increase by $15.

    Re-bid: 3* for $69 and won Crowne Plaza.

    I was *really* hoping for Hilton Garden or Residence Inn, which is why I selected 3 stars. I knew from this board that there was a chance I would get Crowne Plaza, which is what happened. I think that it might be harder to get the super-low prices on longer trips, especially during Spring Break. But I'm still happy with it since all of the 3* and above hotels are much nicer than the dump we stayed in last year. Last year we had 5 nights in a 2* (which was a stretch) and now we'll be staying 7 nights in a 3.5* for just $100 more. I used the PRICELINE link, but didn't realize the re-bid would cancel that. Sorry! I have referred a bunch of my friends to your website though :)
