Priceline Hotel: 3* Los Angeles (Santa Monica-Marina Del Rey) Holiday Inn

[Colfax]

$50/2.5* rejected with counteroffer. I added Lawndale at $52 for the win. Way to go, Lawndale!

Holiday Inn's best rate on 12/20 is $199; an excellent deal then, tempered by HI's $23/night parking. Parking is free at the 2.5* Courtyard Marina Del Rey I was sort of hoping for. But this should work out fine too.

Thanks for the parking tip, headtrip! I'll try out your garage tomorrow.

Parking tip worked fine, headtrip. I only paid $10 to park instead of $23 plus tip at the Holiday Inn. That $10 was $3 for overnight parking until 6am and $7 for 6am-noon. $7 is the daily max so I could have kept my car there until 6pm for the same price.

I'm glad that worked out for you. I'd much rather keep my money than spend it on parking. I have parking secrets for nearly every city....I should write a book and make some money off of it...hehehe

Do you have any parking tips for the Beverly Hills Residence Inn? It's $20/night and valet only. All I saw nearby was meters and "permit only".
