crazygoat Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 I was really surprised here. I was aiming for Culver City and started at $50. As I went up $5 each round i added Beverley Hills, Hollywood, Santa Monica, then downtown at $70. Does Priceline always throw in the higher star ranked hotels like they seemed to do for me. I was bidding on a 3 star and got The Sheraton. Any tips on where to park? :)
AaronJB Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 Congrats on your success. :)Very nice deal for this LA property. Occasionally PRICELINE does upgrade a win to the next star level up.Hopefully others can suggest parking options.Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
scottlevin Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 You should modify your bidding strategy to get best results in the future.Start off with ALL the zones you want and then add zones that don't have hotels which are 3* or greater.You may have been able to win that Sheraton for $50. Now you just don't know.
MurtleCake Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 Parking is a fortune everywhere downtown. I'm trying to figure it out too. I'm staying at the Boneventue, but the event I'm going to is at LA Live. I could end up paying $120 for 2 days worth of parking :) The Sheraton is right at the Metro station.. that's helpful, if you don't need a car.
Colfax Posted April 24, 2011 Report Posted April 24, 2011 MurtleCake,The World Trade Center garage, across the street from Westin, has much cheaper parking than the hotel. The garage is connected to Westin by a skybridge.
