This was for April 19, 2013- April 21, 2013
This was a good hotel. Nice INDOOR pool and hot tub. Didn't use restaurant. Very nearby Orange county Airport if you are flying in and out for business.
Sorry, don't know why I always forget to add dates! This was April 21, 2013-April 24 2013.
This was a very nice, clean hotel. Never used pool or restaurant. But it was a good hotel.
Also, in reply to your post, the Raddison Suites I was hoping is right next to Midieval Times. They have really nice Suites. The Knotts Berry Farm Resort is right on the Knotts property, a little farther away from my destination, but it worked out.
Thanks

Reviews for this hotel seem a little negative, but for the price we are hoping for a good experience. Like maybe this isn't worthy of three stars. Will let you know!
I guessed that this was the hotel. I am a bit leary, as some reviews have complained about their service to hotwire users. I called immediately to request two beds, since I am traveling with my teenagers and a King size bed would be tough. I also called before booking to several of these hotels in the area and they ALL charge parking fees of $15. I received a coupon from hotwire in my email for $20 off, so my total for 2 nights was actually $123.01 with tax.

I was fooled! I thought for sure this was the Raddison Suites by Knotts Berry Farm, which I stayed in before and really liked!
But this sounds like a good hotel. I wasn't super careful reading the lists because I was thinking any 3* in the area would be good.
I called the hotel and they said no problem getting two queen beds. Also, there is a restaurant, but it isn't complementary. They did say that there are no additional resort or parking fees associated with this property, which I was glad! For the 3 nights the taxes and fees were $32. for a total of $217.91. If you book through the website, the same 3 nights would be $327 +tax. So HOTWIRE and Better Bidding rock again!

I googled Knotts Berry Farm Resort, and there is no website. The only website I find is for knotts berry farm, Is this Knotts Berry Farm Hotel?
Just got back from this trip and the Radisson Suites in Buena Park was a very nice hotel. There was a lot of room in both the bedroom and the living area. The beds were comfortable. The breakfast was good, buffet with eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes, toast, cereal, and made to order omlets if you want. The happy hour with free drinks was a nice touch. The service was excellent and the staff friendly. The hotel was completely booked, but it didn't seem too crazy with people. The location is right by Knotts Berry Farm. I would go there again.
I bid again on the next night, 8/25 and got it for $73. It wasn't available before when I bid on the 23rd and 24th. I have been watching it for several weeks and it seems like the prices were sort of creaping up, so I snagged it. Glad it was the same hotel! Thanks to Better Bidding for helping to navigate Hotwire with a little more knowledge. It was interesting that the taxes and fees for the two night stay was $24 and the taxes and fees for the one night was $19. I guess that is something you need to watch out for.
I just got the Raddison Suites in Buena Park for $69 per night for Auguest 23-26. Not listed ammenities are free breakfast!

I know this is a little late, but just wanted to add that this was a really nice hotel. Clean, comfortable. It had a sleeping room and a little sitting room. Highly recommended.
This hotel ended up being wonderful. It was clean, friendly and comfortable. Would recommend it highly and...no bed bugs!
The dates are 8/23-8/26/12
I have noticed that the list for this 3* hotel is exactly the same as the Radisson Suites wins except that "suites" is not listed nor is "tennis nearby". Any ideas?

I just looked into the free shuttle and the last one leaves the airport at 10:30--our flight gets in later!!! Foiled again!
I guess you just need to be flexible with this bidding stuff and be glad to not be paying full price.
At least we can take the shuttle back to the airport.
So on top of my $59 hotel room, I will be spending $20 on a cab.

Tried PRICELINE for same area with 4* at $59, was turned down. Decided I needed a shuttle service guaranteed and some of the lower stars don't have shuttles so I didn't want to risk it and took this one. Looks nice.
Priceline responded with a very nice letter about the bed bugs that basically said "tough Luck" with the bed bug issue. So hopefully they are being super diligent in working out that problem since it could really ruin business I can imagine.
We are checking out Wheaton for a college tour for my daughter.
We are staying 10/22-10/23.
Thanks
I put the dates in the subject line. I am staying 10/21. Thanks for the tips, I will definately be diligent as I believe all travellers should be now since this is a problem.
:)
I checked out this hotel on the internet after I received my winning bid, and there is a bed bug alert!!!!! I called priceline to ask if there is anything I can do and they said they would have customer service work on this for me. I called the hotel and the front desk clerk did verify they had had a problem "in the past" I asked if it was "recent past" since the reports were from Sept '10, and she confirmed that they did have a few rooms that had some and that they are closed down for months and fumigated etc. Has this happened to anyone else? I hear this has become a problem at even nicer hotels. I will let you know how it turns out.
This is my first time using Priceline. I was really glad to find this site. I was a little disappointed with this win since some other people got 4*'s recently for $105 in this area, but the reviews are really great for this hotel so I think it will be perfect. I started bidding way down at $70 and kept adding. PL said they would take my 4* bid for $124, but I really wanted to stay lower.
Thanks for all of the tips!
Question: When travelling with daughter, is there any way to request 2 beds on pl or do you just get whatever? I called the hotel and we have a king, which will be ok, but I would rather have 2 beds.
Buena Park, Ca area

In searching for a hotel in the Buena Park area, I noticed that there is a category for Buena Park and another category for Buena Park Knottsberry farm. Your listings of hotels in the area only list One category for the Buena Park area. Do you think this is just a recent change? Is there any data on Hotel wins in these specific areas? If I buy how do I report?
