So that was my winning bid, $58 for 2* in this zone north of San Diego.  The only amenity shown before the bid was 7+ Priceline user reviews.  After I won my bid, amenities shown with the winning bid were:

 

  • Free Breakfast
  • Free Internet (in Room)
  • Free Parking
  • Pet Friendly
  • Outdoor Pool
  • Non-Smoking

 

Note, Priceline's Express Deals show a 2* hotel in this zone - almost certainly the same hotel - for $70.  I was checking this every day, and on one day only, the price on Express Deals was $57, but it went back to $70 the next day.

 

I had been trying several star levels in the zones north of San Diego.  Here are all the bids I tried which did NOT win:

 

  • $65 for 3* Del Mar - Rancho Santa Fe - Solana Beach
  • $62 for 3* La Jolla – UCSD
  • $65 for 3* North County Coastal – Encinitas

  • $65 for 3* Sorrento Mesa

  • $61 for 2.5* La Jolla – UCSD

  • $61 for 2.5* North County Coastal – Encinitas

  • $61 for 2.5* Sorrento Mesa

  • $57 for 2* La Jolla – UCSD

  • $57 for 2* North County Coastal – Encinitas

I've completed my stay.  This hotel was excellent in every way. The room was clean and spacious, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. Features like the breakfast and room amenities (refrigerator, microwave) were better than usual for a budget chain. The speed/bandwidth of the free wifi was quite good, and was never a problem. Soundproofing of the rooms was excellent. This is a small property (around 20 rooms) with a sense of intimacy, which is very pleasant.

 

Tips: 1. I don't think there is an elevator, so those with less mobility should ask for the first floor.  2. This hotel is between the Encinitas Blvd and Leucadia Blvd exits on I-5.  Encinitas Blvd has frequent traffic backups, so using the Leucadia Blvd interchange is often quicker, even when traveling to and from destinations south of the hotel.
