ev8876 Posted March 9, 2003 Report Posted March 9, 2003 Check In: 4/11/03Check Out: 4/12/03Your Offer Price: $53Number of Rooms: 1Taxes: $7.51Processing Fee: $5.95Total Charges: $66.46After finding a link to this web site at www.cruisecritic.com, I read everything I could find about bidding on a hotel at Priceline for LAX. I started my bid only for the LAX zone, 4 star, bid of $45. It was rejected but gave me a counteroffer for $58. Instead of taking the counteroffer, I started adding zones that I knew had no 4 star hotels. I then raised my bid to $48. Rejected. Added another zone and raised my bid to $50. Rejected again. Added the final zone that had no 4 star hotels and raised my bid to $53 and it was accepted. I am so happy I found this website. It was my first ever try at Priceline and I feel really good about my experience. :)
zbenye Posted March 9, 2003 Report Posted March 9, 2003 Well done, you bid like a pro, and it looks like you paid not a penny more than the actual hotel rate :-)This hotel on Expedia: $109Lowest 4* on Hotwire: $62
