mncervant Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 I booked this hotel on 1/15/11. My family and I are going on a cruise and wanted to stay on Miami beach for a few days. I tried 4 and 3.5 stars @ $120.00 and couldnt get nothing, lowered my bid to $70.00 and clicked 3 stars and got "Royal Palm Hotel" 1st time. There is an adittional $19.00 resort fee that I read about from other people, and I hear parking is pricey, but, I am very happy to be oceanfront in Miami. I did use the betterbidding pricline link, and have used betterbidding in the past. I just registered today and this is my 1st post. Thanx Betterbidding ...
AaronJB Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Congrats on your success and Welcome to Betterbidding. :)Terrific deal for this Miami property, and glad you are pleased with the result.Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE link.Enjoy your stay.
Sunriser Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 It is a totally RIP OFF !!They get you with their Resort Fee ($19 + Tax per Day), but i cant see any resort ! They have a very small pool.... wifi is included which i dont need...PLUS, for Priceline Customers, they give you their cheaper rooms on the side, which are old "apartment" styled rooms with "Living and Bedroom"... however, you feel like second class customer comparing to the other rooms and their equipment..For all incl. more then $100, you are doing much better on those 4 Star Hotels in Downtown, at least the price is final and there will be no hidden "resort fee" charges..Very disappointed !
AaronJB Posted January 19, 2011 Report Posted January 19, 2011 SunriserSorry to hear you didn't have a good experience at this property. It would be greatly appreciated if you could post the details of your win/stay as a separate thread.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
mncervant Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 Royal Palm was the exact location me and my family wanted to be at, right on the beach and next to plenty of shops and places to eat. We had a blast. The hotel is nice, the room was o.k. it did take forever to check in and to me the $39.00 parking is a joke ( so we parked on 16th st ). All in all, great trip for me and the family, Peace ...
