OldSchool Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Savings Barn --> PricelineFirst bid $50 - more than 8 days ago.Bid twice a day adding Lawndale each time for over a week.Winning bid $130Sheraton Delfina Santa Monica Santa Monica & Marina Del Rey530 West Pico Boulevard Santa Monica, California 90405 310-399-9344Check in Date: Feb 25, 2008Check out Date: Feb 27, 2008A little bit more than I wanted to spend, especially with parking going to run me $50+ for two days, but the Sheraton website rate for this room was $279.I was very surprised to get the Sheraton, because of all the priceline 3*'s in Santa Monica this is by far the most expensive. I also continually checked HOTWIRE and they would show a rate of $139 for my dates which I strongly believe was the Holiday inn.Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $130.00 Subtotal: $260.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $46.02 Total Charges*: $306.02
troutguy Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Oldschool-Congrats on your winning bid. I have been bidding in Santa Monica/MDR for the last few days too. My days are for 2/3-2/6 and I have yet to break the $100 mark yet. I think I am going to have to include LAX to keep my prices down. We'll see. Anyway, good job on your bidding.
thereuare Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 Congratulations on your win!Glad to hear you are happy with the results... less than half price is certainly a great deal.Regarding your receiving the Sheraton, there is often little correlation between the lowest priced hotel (thru conventional booking methods) in the zone and the hotel you'll likely receive thru priceline.Thank you for sharing your winning bid with the board and for using the SavingsBarn.com PRICELINE links to begin your bidding.Enjoy your stay. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
