Geoffrey123 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Hello,Would ideally like 3* in San Rafael region, but it's looking like I won't get the deal I'd like.I have started bidding on Priceline for these dates. Am up to $59 for 3* properties in San Rafael and Sausalito areas. Have also gone up to $55 for 2.5* in SAusalito, up to $44 for 2* in Sausalito, and 2* for $42 in SAn Rafael.Anyone have any bidding tips for these dates for a 3* in San Rafael? I'm also willing to go lower on * ratings and stay in the Sausalito area but would really like a property with a pool.

Geoffrey123 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 Yes, where do I find that property? Hotwire? If it's a 3* I would probably first bid a little lower for a 3* in San Rafael on Priceline.
Geoffrey123 Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 Found it on HOTWIRE. I'll keep trying PRICELINE for now and post when I have an outcome.
thereuare Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 If you are interested in the Four Points i wouldn't expect that rate to last as it is significantly lower than i'm seeing this property priced at any other site.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Geoffrey123 Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Posted March 12, 2011 Hello,Besides being a 2* for $54 per night in the above area of Marin County, HOTWIRE also says that the property includes: complimentary breakfast and high speed internet access. Any idea what property this is? Thanks.
thereuare Posted March 13, 2011 Report Posted March 13, 2011 This property has not yet been reported to the board, but if i were to take a guess i think the Travelodge Mill Valley-/Sausalito would be among the likely candidates.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Geoffrey123 Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Posted March 14, 2011 After a bunch of bidding on Priceline, I decided to go for a 1*. Started in Sausalito area at $31, this was also refused when adding San Rafael, then bid $36 Sausalito, which was refused, added San Rafael for $36 and got the Travelodge San Rafael for dates 4/14/11-4/19/11. It's a bargain and hopefully the motel will prove to be adequate for sleeping during my trip. My unsuccessful bidding went as follows: 3* in Sausalito and San Rafael areas for $732.5 * Sausalito $672.5* San Rafael $712* Sausalito $662* San Rafael $61I decided I really didn't want/need to spend more that what I was bidding and bit the bullet and started bidding low for a 1*. First time ever bidding 1* on Priceline.
Geoffrey123 Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Posted March 14, 2011 decided to go with a 1* on Priceline and got it in San Rafael area for $36 per night, dates 4/14/11-4/19/11. See Priceline board for details.

Geoffrey123 Posted May 1, 2011 Author Report Posted May 1, 2011 This 1* wasn't bad, especially for the price. The room was relatively clean, reliable/consistent maid service, good location, free wifi, refrigerator, and a comfortable mattress.
