rhubarb Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 HiI'm a long time lurker and have had much advice from this super site. Now I would like to ask for some help please.I am staying at the Aladdin from 16th to 19th Jan with a friend at her promotional rate but I need somewhere for the 16th and 17th.I think I would perhaps like to stay downtown or perhaps the Westin if it wasn't too pricey as I shall be on my own.What do folks think I should do?Thanks.
dahammer Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Welcome to BetterBidding! Can you give us an idea about your minimum star rating that you will accept and maximum budget per night? You also mentioned that you you would prefer to stay at the Westin, you can't really target a specific property when bidding. Can you also confirm your dates as they overlap your Aladdin stay.
rhubarb Posted December 30, 2006 Author Report Posted December 30, 2006 Ooops! Thanks for a swift reply dahammer.Now! I'm arriving on a Sunday------14th Jan. I have that day and the following day to myself and then I join a friend on Tuesday 16th Jan.If I stay downtown I would like a nice hotel----e.g. not The Gold Spike type. :) Thanks again.PS If it makes a difference----I'm a female on her own.
thereuare Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 What is your budget... that matters more than whether you are male or female :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
rhubarb Posted December 31, 2006 Author Report Posted December 31, 2006 I'm sorry for stating that I'm a female on her own. :) I was advised that parts of downtown are unsuitable.My budget for downtown wouldn't be much more than $60 per night and otherwise perhaps $100.
thereuare Posted December 31, 2006 Report Posted December 31, 2006 I'm sorry for stating that I'm a female on her own.No need to be sorry, i understood the reason for you stating such, and i was just kidding.Do you prefer to stay to stay Downtown for $60 (or under) or on the Strip for $100 (or under)?

rhubarb Posted January 1, 2007 Author Report Posted January 1, 2007 Thank you. I think downtown but first of all I am going to try for the Renaissance as per pirate's post and I'll see what I might get.I shall of course go through the link from this site.Margaret
dahammer Posted January 1, 2007 Report Posted January 1, 2007 what appeared to be the 4* Golden Nugget was available in the downtown zone for $59 on HOTWIRE.
loanshark Posted January 1, 2007 Report Posted January 1, 2007 The Aladdin is available through the Sheraton site for your dates for $88 per night (prepaid) or $89 per night (cancelable), so you wouldn't have to switch hotels.There is a Sheraton link available on the this website. Look at the top of the page where it says travel links to support Better Bidding.
rhubarb Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Posted January 2, 2007 WOW! Thanks to all for help and replies!I went through this site of course and started with $60 for Convention Centre and was offered it for $77 so I started again and went up to $65----refused again so I went to $70 and it was accepted for the Renaissance!WOW! Thanks so much. I am thrilled. :) Margaret
dahammer Posted January 2, 2007 Report Posted January 2, 2007 glad your accomodations are better than the Golden Spike! :)
rhubarb Posted January 2, 2007 Author Report Posted January 2, 2007 Hehe----dahammer! :) :) :o Thanks for your advice!
