We are booked in at a mdr hotel for 125 per night + tax inc parking so would set this as our limit as we would have to pay for parking on top elsewhere. Thanks

Sorry about delay, now in usa so will give it one more go for a3+ in mdr. We are happy to stay at any 3.5* in mdr/santa monica. What do yhou suggest as a sensible bidding strategy? Thanks

We looked at the Courtyard but thought it was too far out as we would like to walk to the beach. We have a backup booked for now. We will try for a 3.5* again tommorrow in Sm/MDR. 1. Any idea what we might need to go to to secure one? 2. What areas can we use if our first bid is unsuccessful? Cheers

Just tried again including lawndale. Bid 130 then 150 for a 3.5 star both rejected so must be way too low. Neil

I will try again including Lawndale. We only used a 3.5* as we want to make sure we have a pool. Can we add an extra zone which won't have a 3.5* Thanks

We can share a bed if we have to. Can you confirm which bid zone i can add? What bid level do you suggest (I can go to about $130) As requested i did use your PRICELINE link to bid and will do next time :) I will also look at HOTWIRE and see what they do. Thanks

Hi Newbie seeking assitance from UK to secure best price for Santa Monica/MDR staying August 10 for 4 nights. I'm traveling with wife and daughter (14). I've registered with priceline and just had an ambitious $103 rejected but will possibly go a little higher but have a car so will have to take parking into account. We are setting off on friday so wanted to book something before leaving. Also can i rebid using a different area without any 3+* hotels as we really want SM/MDR Cheers
