tbbunches Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Used BB PRICELINE links - been working on this for a few days. Started with 4* downtown until I discovered the high cost of parking by checking out the hotels. We stayed at the Airport in December and it was very convenient to downtown where we need to be so decided to take that route. First try for a 3.5* went from $38 to $43 - all rejected but was told at $38 could have a room for $49 if I chose to go that way - I didn't. Tried the 3* last night and went from $38 to $40 - only 2 bids available. Tonight I took the 3.5* from $42 to $46 with no luck. Decided to switch to 3* and started at $42 and was accepted on first bid. Total for 3 nights $155.58. The convention we are attending is offering rooms for $149 plus tax and $28 parking according to the hotel website a night downtown. We are staying at the Courtyard for less than one night there and it will take around 10 minutes to get downtown and parking at the convention center is like $5. Great deal as far as we are concerned. Had hoped for Hyatt Place, I love their hotels, but the Courtyards are always nice.Thanks--- Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Congratulations on your success! Looks like a very nice deal and a significant savings vs. booking a hotel directly at the conference hotel. While not your first choice in the zone, sounds like this should be quite convenient for your needs.Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.
