Colfax Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 This is a new hotel for the Hotel List and Parkway-Florin is also a new zone in the Sacramento cluster. I think "Elk Grove-South Sacramento" would be a better name for the zone. Parkway is sort of a housing project area with a bad reputation and using the word "Parkway" in the zone name might discourage some people from bidding the zone. Parkway's not the area of the zone where hotels are located, so using Parkway in the zone name is misleading. All the 2.5* hotels are in Elk Grove, at the other end of the zone.Anyhow...Hilton Garden Inn Elk Grove9241 Laguna Springs DriveElk Grove, CA 95758My first bid of $45 was accepted. I would have tried lower but there are no rebid zones for 2.5* in Sacramento.Bid placed through the BetterBidding PRICELINE link. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Congratulations on your success!Hope you were happy with this stay and this new zone helps with your future bidding.It looks like the Elk Grove zone used to be on its own but is now part of the Sacramento region, as the Fairfield Inn has also been reported in this zone too.Thank you for using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding and sharing your win, helping us add this property to the Priceline Hotel List.
