nktravel Posted July 9, 2011 Author Report Posted July 9, 2011 went for 2half star for 50.00rejected $50.00was asked to add a 2 star not sure if I want to do that
Colfax Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 What are your travel dates?There's always some chance an unreported hotel will come up for the first time. I can't say what the odds are.Have you checked Hotwire to see if a hotel with POOL icon is showing for your dates?Please use these HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links for your puchases.
nktravel Posted July 9, 2011 Author Report Posted July 9, 2011 this weekend sat night and sunday leaving monday am July 9 to and leaving july 11it seem all 2 hotels are 2 stars and two hotel 2.5 stars have swimming pool thethere is only one hotel that is 1 starwhat price should I bid with ? try for 2 star but no more than 70.00 motel 6 is 70.00 Median retail price for a 2 star hotel in the area selected is $122.I think I ll try for $60.00? for 2 stars ?
nktravel Posted July 9, 2011 Author Report Posted July 9, 2011 We're sorry, but we can't accept your offer of $75 for a hotel room in the Temecula, CA area. this for 2 stars. might as well go to motel 6ill wait later for the "2nd chance" in the email
Colfax Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 If you enter "Temecula" in the Quick Search box at the top of the page you'll see it's been almost two years since anyone reported a Priceline win in Temecula. There's no recent bid history to rely on then.Hotwire's only Temecula option is a 2.5* for $146. It has a POOL icon but I don't think you're shopping in that price range.Since this is a last minute bid and there are no rebid zones my suggestion is to bid $60 for a 2* and if that doesn't work maybe take the Motel 6 for $70. If the pool is a MUST then Motel 6 would be safer than bidding 2*, since you know M6 has the pool. Temecula gets hot in summer and I think most any hotel there would have a pool, but it's not guaranteed.Please use this PRICELINE link if you try for 2*, and let us know how it goes. Good luck!edit to add: I hadn't seen your posts above. Sorry your 2* bid was rejected. Sunday night is likely less expensive than Saturday. If you're willing to switch hotels I'd try $60 for 2.5* on Sunday night only. Then if accepted try Add a Night for Saturday night, or stay at Motel 6 that night.
nktravel Posted July 9, 2011 Author Report Posted July 9, 2011 Thank you I just talked to my partner and she said she can stay with me until tues. so I will move it from sunday to tues. thank you and I am clicking the PRICELINE link here. okay much better now there are 9 with swimming pool. and cheaper too.
Colfax Posted July 9, 2011 Report Posted July 9, 2011 What a difference a day makes!HOTWIRE's 2.5* is $146 for Sat + Sun.HOTWIRE's 2.5* is $60 for Sun + Mon.Let us know what you come up with. Good luck!
