ElGrandeCheapo

Stayed Jan 17-19 2010. This hotel opened April 2009. It is connected to the Embassy Suites and the LaVista Conference Center. Since it is new, I have no complaints. Everything clean and new including the Pool & hot tub. Often hotel pools / hot tubs are not working or not warm enough. This one was. Free parking. Free internet. New exercise center. No free breakfast (if only this Embassy Suites used Priceline - sigh). Appeared to have low occupancy (hotel just getting started). We were pleased to get this hotel for $45 (web rates $99 - $109).

1st bid: $41 - PL offered to rebid if I add $12 2nd bid: Increased to $45 by using 1 of 4 free rebid zones - Accepted Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $45.00 Subtotal: $90.00 Taxes & Fees: $23.62 Total Charges*: $113.62 I booked this at the last minute (1/17/10) This was an easy get since it appears this LaVista Courtyard is the only 3* in Zone 7 (Southwest Omaha) and there are plenty of free rebid zones. This hotel is less than a year old. Newer is better. Used the PRICELINE link. Thank you for the board.
