Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Los Angeles (Airport LAX) Radisson

[tbbunches]

Worked hard for this one - actually needed 6/15-19 but went to $55 (increasing prices and adding areas) and couldn't get an acceptance. Finally dropped Tuesday and Wednesdayand was accepted at $50. Even tried the additional check-in offered when got the Thurs/Fri accepted at $50 and was rejected. Must be something big going on as we stay at LAX alot and have never had a problem. Hardly ever had to bid more than $45 and usually accepted on first try. This was $122.14 total - parking is a little higher here - $16.50+ tax.

Finally ended up with $50 a night at the Radisson and changed plans and used reward points to stay in Oxnard area on Tuesday/Wednesday. Might still try BB and PRICELINE for those but pretty happy with the rewards points. Usually avoid booking direct and getting awards but we often have to book 4 plus rooms for several weeks and almost impossible to get a PRICELINE acceptance on those terms but does give us negotiating power with hotels and then points to spend because if we are paying we get the points not our people.

Nicely done!

Glad to see you were successful SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID and are still flexible with the remaining two nites of your stay (but have a back-up plan)

Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.

Enjoy this leg of your stay... if we can be of any help with the remaining two nites feel free to ask.
