thehabs25 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 I'm looking for a strategy to get possibly a 4* in San Diego in one of the Gaslamp districts. Two rooms are needed. What is a good deal for that range? Ideally $200-250 pp would be great. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 Please confirm the desired per room/per night budget before taxes/fees. If you are looking at around $110-125 per room/per night, I think that's possible - there's a 4.5* for $131 on HOTWIRE in the Gaslamp-Horton Plaza area for $131, with the amenities listed further below. I'd guess this may be the Andaz. There's also the current coupon for 5% off Express Deals. The HOTWIRE deal (although may see a slightly different price) is $928.89 after taxes/fees.Free InternetPet friendlyBoutique HotelSmoke Free RoomsFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterInternet accessAccessible for the blindAccessible for the deafAccessible path of travelIn-room accessibilityWheelchair accessibleAccessible bathroomHandicapped parkingRoll-in showerLet us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.

thehabs25 Posted June 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 That's a decent deal. Is the $928 the cost with 5% off? I'd prefer something a bit less if possible, that's why we were hoping to do something with PRICELINE but I'm open to options. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Ideally $200-250 pp would be great.The HOTWIRE offer above is within your stated price range, so if this is no longer your actual budget and/or you'd like to try bidding, please confirm your true budget in terms of maximum bid price per nite. As well, if you'd like to proceed by bidding, please list the zones, by PRICELINE name, that you're willing to accept. ...there's a 4.5* for $131 on HOTWIRE in the Gaslamp-Horton Plaza area for $131, with the amenities listed further below.Is the $928 the cost with 5% off?The 5% OFF is with PRICELINE EXPRESS... the above is a deal for a 4.5* property with HOTWIRE.

thehabs25 Posted June 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 The PRICELINE EXPRESS deal is decent. I like that the hotel seems to be a younger type if its Andaz but it doesn't appear they have more than a single bed in the room which might be a problem for us. I also saw a priceline express deal for a 3.5* that is 789.66 after the 5% off and the double 2 bed suite selected. Any idea what that hotel might be? Amenities for that are: Free Internet in room Indoor Swimming Pool Restaurant Business Center Fitness Center If that isn't a hotel I like I may proceed with the PRICELINE bidding. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 So we can easily find the 3.5* when repeating your search, which zone is this property located in and what is the room rate per nite?

thehabs25 Posted June 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Gaslamp quarter area. The room rate is $113. If I select Double bed option its $119 Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 The Declan Suites San Diego would be my best guess for this PRICELINE EXPRESS property.

thehabs25 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Hmm, that property doesn't look like what we are wanting. Could we proceed with a bidding strategy for PRICELINE for a 4* and up in the Gaslamp quarter or the Gaslamp quarter south areas? Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 What amount should we use for your maximum bid for a 4* property?

thehabs25 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Got the westgate hotel on the final bid $125. Thanks for the help. Looks like a decent price. Kind of an older style hotel but the location and price is perfect. If i want to request two beds in each room, should I call now and let them know my preference? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Congrats on your success. :) Nice result for this property and glad you are pleased with the result. If you need to request two beds, I'd call ahead. Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches. Enjoy your stay.
