Priceline Hotel: 2.5* Los Angeles (Airport LAX) Courtyard Marriott

[dhammer53]

Started at 3* and $35 for the LAX and Redondo Beach area. I figured if that wasn't accepted, I could re-bid 2/12* for the same area.

I did just that; with a re-bid at $36.

Bingo.

I'm staying at the Courtyard by Marriott.

Sunday March 13.

One night

$36.00

$12.29 taxes/fees

Total $48.29

Congratulations.

Nice job thinking this thru ahead of time and knowing what you would do each step along the way.

I assume this is the one on Century Blvd (rather than El Segundo?)

Thanks for posting and enjoy your stay.

You are correct. Century Blvd.

Last week, I bid 2 1/2* for Redondo Beach and failed at $35. This time I bid 3* and included both RB and LAX. I knew that if this failed, Priceline lets you bid down a *; which is what I did. I upped my bid by $1.00 :) . My bid was accepted. To tell you the truth, I was expecting the Residence Inn. I stayed there once (at regular price) and enjoyed it.
