We'll wait the 72 hours and try again for the Four Points Sheraton. It looks like that is what is coming up for others.

Do you have an Entertainment Card? There's a Holiday Inn Select - Convention Center for $44.50. Looks nice on the web site (as best one can tell). Not to dissuade you from using Priceline, but sometimes other options are better. I only know about this because my mother asked me to get a room for her recently in Bakersfield.

Thanks for the info. I don't have an Entertainment Card unfortunately. I did get a Priceline bid accepted for $48 this morning. I'll post the info tomorrow since I just got home from a day at Disneyland with my son and I'm going to bed. :)
