zbenye Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Hotel Name: Larkspur Landing Of South San Francisco690 Gateway Boulevard San Francisco, California 94080 Your Offer Price: $44.00Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 2 Subtotal: $88.00 Taxes and Service Fees: $20.53 Total Charges: $108.53 $43 rejected in SSF, USE, USW, FW, and couldn't get anything for more than 2 nights for up to $45.Hotwire is offering a 3* hotel in this zone for $41, but I didn't feel like experimenting. It's really disappointing that Hotwire is now frequently beating Priceline rates. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 14, 2005 Report Share Posted May 14, 2005 Glad to see you around regularly once again :) .... hope your trip was a success and you're not too disappointed to be back home again.I seem to recall that you like this hotel so it worked out ok for you, but it think the 'baton' of who has the better deal will come and go in cycles, just as the hotel market does.Thanks for your latest post and enjoy your stay.

zbenye Posted May 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 The trip was good, thanks. Hope you found my review of the Berlin Moevenpick entertaining ;-)I've just noticed the Hotwire coupon thread, so now I'm tempted to check out the 3* hotels Hotwire is offering in SFO North for $41-$43. Depending on the dates I enter, two different hotels come up: one with just a shuttle, another with a shuttle and a restaurant. Care to guess which they are, thereuare? Do you think they might be the same hotel? Link to comment

zbenye Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 5/17-21 shows $41 for 3* Shuttle, Restaurant. Best Value.Right now any dates I enter all return the same.So any guess? I suspect the Holiday Inn. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Here are other (likely) 3* hotels i see in the zone and amenties offered but not listed on the HOTWIRE offer above:Best Western - poolFour Points - Hi-speed Internet, FitnessCourtyard (2 in the area): both have hi-speed internet and pool (at least one only has a restaurant for breakfast)HGI - hi-speed internet, poolThe Holiday Inn also lists a Fitness center but that is an amenity more likely to be left off than a pool. Also note that the Holiday Inn is undergoing renovations during the month of May ('no guest services are disrupted')PS- i did read your review... sounds like my kind of place! Between your review and watching this seaon's Amazing Race, i think i have to get overseas more often!

zbenye Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 So we can't really tell. Looks like I'll have to book and find out. Considering that Priceline has just rejected all my offers up to $45 in SSF for any combination of nights beginning 5/17, and the $10 off coupon for Hotwire, looks like Hotwire is the way to go anyway.
