ezed Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 This is a late posting (after our trip). Started bidding (thru the PRICELINE link at BetterBidding) on 6 Aug. for 4* for either USE or USW for 2 night stay.Started bidding at $85 and added $5 increments for 4 additional zones (w/no 4*). Rejected for the 5 bids.Restarted same day at $111 and was accepted at $116 for the St. Francis on 2nd bid. I was surprised that we had to go this high in our bidding price but still less than HOTWIRE.Having stayed before, we knew that the St.Francis books PL customers only in the Traditional section which has smaller and older rooms. We opted, at check-in, for an upgrade to the Tower section for $20/night extra.We enjoyed our stay.Thanks again to BetterBidding for this Traveler support.
hlm3 Posted August 28, 2010 Report Posted August 28, 2010 When I stayed there on a PL reservation I was celebrating a special occasion. They were nice enough to put me and my wife in a large corner room in the newly-renovated Tower section. The room had a wonderful view and we were very impressed with the hotel.Just lucked out I guess!
