Just wanted to add that while the rooms are small, the public areas are great - especially the roof-top terrace. I would book the Hudson Hotel for this terrace alone!

Yes, I did book the LaQuinta through EasyClick (thank you to whoever recommended that!) but I still want to try priceline over the next couple of weeks to see if there's a chance I could get something cheaper.

Not familiar with this site. Went to EasyClick.com but got some message in French saying the site was down (I think).

Been trying priceline for three weeks now for Fort Lauderdale for the night of 2/26/05 for a pre-cruise stay and continue to get rejected. Following is history: 4* - Ft Lauderdale Beach, Downtown, Airport - $70 rejected 3* - " " - $75 rejected 2 1/2* - " " - $80 rejected Would be OK with the Airport LaQuinta (currently holding a reservation there for $144, $160 with taxes) but I am afraid of getting other 2*'s which I don't want (Ramada, Comfort Inn, etc.). And $160 seems outrageous to pay for a 2*! Didn't want to pay over $100, but I'm at a loss as to what to do now. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
