Priceline Hotel: 3* Ft Lauderdale (Downtown) Riverside Hotel

[hillside]

Hi, I saw a 2 1/2 star FLL airport hotel for $76. I'm looking for 2 nights, March 2-4, 2011, pre cruise.

The ammenities listed on Hotwire are free breakfast, fitness, pool, business center, laundry, and hi speed internet.

What is your opinion?

Thanks!

Best guess would be Best Western Hallandale.

Thanks for the id. I'm going to check this hotel out further. I think I may go for something closer to the port. I will definately let you know what I end up doing. I feel that I have time on my side so I will just check things out for a few days at least.

That was quick. I went on line and checked the Best Western out. I want to be much closer to Fort Lauderdale so I won't be getting this hotel. It's 8 miles to the FLL port and 9 to las Olas. I think I'll check out the Las Olas and Fort Lauderdale beach areas instead. Thanks again and I'm sure I'll have more questions. This board saved me a great deal of cash on our Hawaii trip last March!

Please keep all posts in the same thread since posts are for the same stay.

Best guess would be Hyatt Place Airport North.

I'm wavering on the 3 star if it's Hyatt Place north as I'm thinking I want to be on Las Olas and not need a car. I did see they have an area shuttle. I also saw a 2 star posted at $122. The details are shuttle, free breakfast, business center, hi speed internet. Hotwire is still gathering responses. What hotel might this be? Same dates, of course. 3/2/2011 to 3/4/2011.

Thanks again.

Can you ID?

Unfortunately this property has not yet been identified... but i'll add that the Hyatt Place is one of the favorite brands on the board and this particular property gets very good reviews from cruisers.

I want to let you know that I booked a 3 star in downtown Fort Lauderdale last night on PRICELINE. I bid $100 and was accepted for the Riverside which I think will be perfect for us. It was 2 nights, March 2-4, 2011. I read several posts on CruiseCritic that peaked my interest in this hotel and when I bid I'd looked at the Priceline list of hotels and thought I would have a chance of getting the Riverside. I apologize for not going into PRICELINE through Betterbidding. Somehow I slipped up on that. Thank you for all your help.

Congratulations on your success and thank you for sharing your results with the board.
