Priceline Hotel: Bidding Assistance Anchorage 6/10

[b8tzm]

COULD USE PRICELINE ASSISTANCE WITH ANCHORAGE

We arrive at Seward early on July 10th and will probably off ship at 9-10am

We have to be at airport late that night like 11:30pm

We need a room for a nap (4pm-8pm)and know we need to pay for the night

What have others in a similar situation done?

Do we get a room near tourist attraction areas so we can dump our stuff there or do we go for near the airport

What stars and prices do any of you with experience recommend?

Thanks

I'm not sure whether you need June or July 10th, but I would estimate a 3* to run somewhere in the range of $95-105 during the Summer (double the off-season). Summertime 2* winning bids appear to be an extreme rarity in Anchorage, as are 2.5*'s at any time of year, so there's really not enough data to gauge a bid. You might make a guestimate and try anyway, although it appears to be 3* or nothing in Anchorage during the summer high season. I believe the 2 most likely 3*'s to come up are about 10 or so miles from the airport.
