alliep76 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Posted June 5, 2012 I've never used Priceline before, but I was hoping to find a hotel in the French Quarter for a reasonable price. I'm only considering 4-star hotels. Any suggestions on a reasonable opening bid?

alliep76 Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Posted June 5, 2012 I'm hoping for something between $80-$100 because I know I'll have to pay for parking and possibly wifi access.

alliep76 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Posted June 6, 2012 I was able to get the Marriott on Canal Street for $60! The advertised price for my dates was $159 for the first two nights and $179 for the last night. Thanks for all of your help!
