iceeu2again Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 :) :) This is the very 1st time I have used priceline and I think I did ok. Bids rejected were $50, $55 & $58. Taxes on the $60 bid are $6.74. So can someone tell me how much priceline paid for this room? I'm happy with it regardless because we stay at Marriott products frequently (in fact we are using points at their vacation club while on Kauai), and I had checked the hotel website for this hotel and the best rate I had been able to come up with was a AAA rate of $149...

thereuare Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 Congratulations, pretty soon you'll be giving out advice along with the rest of us. Actually, you may never book a hotel thru conventional methods again!Taxes at this hotel are 11.416% (taken directly from Marriott's website)Taxes Paid / Tax Rate = Priceline's Cost$6.74 / .11416 = $59So you think you did 'ok'? I'd say you did EXCELLENT.... and less than 1/2 the cost of the best rate you found.Enjoy your trip.
