Priceline Hotel: 3* Miami (North Beach) Newport Beachside Resort

[Daniel1978]

Bid on Priceline for the last two nights of my stay. Hotwire showed a 3* Best Value for $52, which could be identified thru the Hotwire hotel list as the Newport Beachside Resort.

Started to bid $43 on Priceline, got counteroffer of $52 but declined. Added North Miami (free rebid zone) and bid $46, but was immediately rejected. Then started over and selected North Miami Beach and Southwest Miami (2nd rebid zone), bid $48 and got accepted on the Newport Beachside Resort. Grand total of $116.95

The hotel has quite good reviews on tripadvisor, so I'm really looking forward to it. I think it's hard to beat the value of that deal.

BTW: on Travelocity"]Travelocity, the hotel is shown with a rate of $79 for these dates. Deducting the 50 bucks from the current "Mastercard $50 off on 2+ nights hotel bookings" promotion, I only saved around $16 for the whole stay. But I wasn't quite sure whether they would accept my German Mastercard on this promotion or the "Travelocity"]Travelocity Mastercard" only.

Kind regards, Daniel

I've added 3* to your topic title... can you confirm that this is priceline rating for this property?

Thanks.

Oh, I totally forgot to mention :)

Yes, this property is a 3* on Priceline. The only 3* that is left in this zone is the Doubletree Oceanfront Resort, but this has remarkably higher rates. So the chance was very low to get something else.

Kind regards,

Daniel
