  1. GreenTree Inn & Suites, Phoenix Sky Harbor 4234 South 48th Street - bid on Tempe area but this came up and is at airport 

    3* 

    a so called resort so resort fee to pay - best advertised price was around twice what we paid 

     

    Free parking, Free breakfast, Free Internet, Airport shuttle, Fitness center, Pool(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access

    Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower

     

  2. Started bidding at $70.

    Offered a room if increased fifer to $95.

    Declined and continued to bud adding free zones.

    Eventually accepted at $85.

    Then our flight was cancelled.

    PRICELINE were excellent in dealing with my conundrum.

    Thanks better bidding.....you helped me to know where to pitch my bids.

    I will be rebooking for early next month.....hopefully I get equally good deal.

  3. sorry for the delay in adding this

    omni parker offer a loyalty programme

    you can join via their website or at the hotel on check in

    it entitles you to free wake up drinks for two people - four drinks in all from a choice of coffee. tea.juices. soft drinks. milk. water ....delivered to your room at the time you request

    and free internet access which otherwise costs approx $10 a day

  4. Started bidding at $80

    Rejected but offered a chance to increase bid by $20 ($100)

    Added free zone (fenway park) increased bid to $85 accepted

    Omni Parker hotel

    School Street

    Boston

    So $85 x 3 nights + fees = $302.34

    Best price with Omni Parker House 3 x $149 + fees = $511.59

    So quite a saving

    I've stayed here before and the location is perfect for what I need to do.

    Used the better bidding PRICELINE link and previous bids to know where to pitch my bids.

    Thanks again all at better bidding. :)

  5. tried for a couple of days and found the hotwire rates were well over $100 for 4* airport hotels

    tried priceline a couple of days ago at around $70 without luck

    tried again today and bid $72 rejected but a counter offer of $92 made

    opened new link and tried again adding ''free zone'' and opened bidding at $82 which was rejected and a counter offer of another $20 made

    went back to the original link and increased offer to $92

    it seemed a reasonable offer

    i saw the hilton was ''won'' and posted on better bidding so was expecting this hotel but it was the hyatt instead

    i've stayed there before so was quite happy

    Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $92.00

    Subtotal: $276.00

    Taxes & Fees: $50.28

    Total Charges*: $326.28

    cost of hyatt site is nearly $200 more for the three night stay - $520

    so a good saving which pays for my car hire and a new pair of ugg boots!!

    thanks better bidding - as ever used your link to make booking

  6. i womder if you know which 4* hotel this is

    Fitness Center

    Pool(s)

    Restaurant(s)

    Business Center

    High-speed Internet Access

    Golf Nearby

    I looked at the hotwire list on bb and think it could be the crown plaza

    i saw some good rates on bb for 4* with priceline but am worried about getting the sheraton as it is a poor hotel with small rooms (twin single beds) or queen beds

    (the rate was around $52 for recent winning bids)

    crowne plaza is much preferable to the sheraton as we are two adults and a teenager

    :)
