Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Orange County (Disneyland-Garden Grove) Sheraton Garden Grove

[mphysick]

I have been trying to bid for a hotel near Disneyland for the night of 15 September. I started with a 4* Anaheim South but gave up at $95, which was my limit for 4*. I'm now looking at 3.5* in Anaheim North or South. I have bid up to $65 with no success. I did not want to pay more than $70 a night for a 3.5*. Could you please advise whether I should keep trying or wait a couple of weeks?

Thanks

Thus far rates for September in this area have been a little higher then the summer months... no telling if rates will drop in the next few weeks or if this will be the new 'normal' for this time frame. However, rates are not that much higher and bidding $70 (vs. $65) may be the difference between success and failure for this trip... so it's up to you if you want to try up t your limit or hope for lower rates in the weeks ahead.

If you haven't seen it yet, a good thread on this subject is the 'Bid Early or Close to Check-in' link in our PRICELINE FAQ.

Also, please follow-up your Priceline Los Angeles thread with an update or your current thoughts for that stay.

I have tried up to $70 for a 3.5* but had no luck, so I might wait another week or so and try again.
