aaroncolorado Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 I believe I found the Extended Stay Deluxe Cypress Creek (a 2* hotel with the only listed amenity being laundry facilities) on hotwire.com for $39 per night for the dates I want. I want to get this (or any other comparable hotel) for cheaper (approximately $30) using Priceline if possible. Hotel category: 1* or 2*Location: Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Pompano Beach, or nearby these ares (Miami & West Palm Beach too far)Price: less than $40 per night.Dates: April 25th, 2007- May 9th, 2007 (two full weeks exactly)I would greatly appreciate if anyone could give me some bidding assistance on how to go about doing this. Thanks! =) Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 The above areas you've listed that you're willing to stay are regions... can you let us know which zones within each your region you're willing to stay. For example, within Ft Lauderdalet the zones are Coral Springs, Downtown, Airport, Beach, etc, etc.It would be helpful if you posted them like this:Ft LauderdaleDowntownAirportMiramarHollywoodetcetc(any other zones within this area you're willing to stay)Boca RatonBoca RatonDeerfield BeachUnder each region only list the zones you're willing to stay.What priceline considers to be 1* may or may not be comparable to the hotel you've identified above... do you want to take the risk of bidding 1* (since we wont' know the hotel received until after you're committed to it) or would you prefer to keep your bidding at 2* or better?

yellowdog Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 aaroncolorado,a word of caution. I would exclude the Fort Lauderdale airport zone. There are some very nasty places. Good luck!Henrik. Link to comment
Randi66 Posted April 16, 2007 Report Share Posted April 16, 2007 In the past, I've won Ft. Lauderdale( Davie, Weston, Plantation)( not sure what zone this is called) for 25.00. Its the Homestead suites. Please read my review before deciding. Its a 2* but very no frills. I've stayed in a lot nicer 2* in other places. You also want to be aware sometimes( not often) there is a parking charge. Case in Point, we just returned for the Bahia Mar( a 3* and parking was 22.00 a day). Happy Travelling, Randi Link to comment
