Priceline Hotel: 2.5* Orange County (Buena Park) Holiday Inn Select

[AztecWolverine]

:) After laboriously using 6 re-bids to try for Disneyland 3*, and getting rejected all the way up to $66, I was afraid I'd get the time-worn Hilton at $70, and have to pay extra for parking ($11?) and shuttles ($4 apiece?), so I gave up on Disneyland area.

I noted that several people had gotten the Courtyard Buena Park for $38, $43, and $45, and a Residence Inn and this Holiday Inn Select La Mirada Buena Park for $50. Since I was doing same-day bidding I didn't have the luxury or time to do any more bids, so I bid $50, and was accepted at the Holiday Inn Select. It is a top-notch high quality hotel only about 15 min. from Disneyland. My review is on Tripadvisor. They have a free shuttle, but it was booked by a big group, and returned too early for us. Disney parking was $10, and much more convenient than I expected when approaching from the north on I-5.

Glad you enjoyed your stay.

Can you also add your review to our own HOTEL REVIEW section.

Thanks!

Hi thereuare,

Yes, I'll copy my tripadvisor review into your list.

I noticed you deleted my mention of the full name of the hotel in the second title line. I put it there because I didn't want people to think it was in Buena Park, and even Priceline doesn't list "La Mirada" as a city in the Buena Park zone. If people wanted to be close to Knotts Berry Farm they would be sorely disappointed......Also, if anyone searched for it they would need to use La Mirada, NOT Buena Park, or they would never find it!

Your Orange County (Buena Park) hotel list needs to be revised. It lists the Holiday Inn Select La Mirada as simply the "Holiday Inn Select". This could easily be confused with the Holiday Inn Buena Park, ESPECIALLY since Priceline incorrectly lists it in their confirmation as the Holiday Inn Select La Mirada Buena Park, which is NOT the correct name of the hotel.

And the "Holiday Inn" should be replaced with its full name - the "Holiday Inn Buena Park". I have seen several people confuse the two in the past - these amendments should help.

Also, you give no directions on your Hotel List on how to add reviews to it. I could add it to one that already existed, but could not figure out how to add a "tripadvisor review" after the hotel name. I have a feeling that you have to do that as administrator... Here is the tripadvisor link:

P.S.: How would you post the first review for a hotel?
