De Quesada Posted July 15, 2006 Report Posted July 15, 2006 Went through a lot of complicated manuevers to try and get my in-laws a hotel that was no more than 2.5-3 stars (less likely to have valet. They do not like valet and/or luxury, only value) in Dallas somewhere around the Galleria, Northpark or Richardson area. They are very happy with this purchase. We searched a lot of hotel websites and found that many hotels were sold out for this period, so they were very concerned about paying $65 for their usual hotel, Econo Lodge. This is MUCH better.This is a hotel not previously listed on the Dallas priceline list.When I bid $35 for a Galleria 2.0 I won the Farmers Branch Studio Plus Extended Stay Suites on the first try. Other bids I tried included:Dallas Galleria 2.5* @ $30Free Rebid East Dallas - Mesquite @ $33Free Rebid FT Worth NW - Bedford @ $37Dallas Galleria 3* $35Free Rebid East Dallas @ $38Free Rebid Bedford $40Northpark 3* $35Free Rebid East Dallas @ $38Free Rebid Bedford $40Dallas Knox 3* $30East Dallas $33Mesquite $36Richardson 3* $35All these bids were rejected summarily. Previously I have been able to win hotels in this area pretty easily. In fact, this time last year we came to visit on and off for 3-4 days every few weeks and won through priceline the same hotel (Comfort Suites) for $28 each time we tried.
