thereuare Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Welcome to BetterBidding!The properties above have not yet been identified.For such an extended stay you could do a search for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then see if ti appears again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the first (or last) nite of your stay in order to 'look behind the curtain'... if you're happy with the results purchase the balance of your stay, if not, look for alternate plans for the remainder of your stay.If you do go this route please use our HOTWIRE link for each purhcase (ie- click our HOTWIRE link to make the first purchase, if you're happy with the results, return here and click the HOTWIRE link again to begin your second purchase)For such an extended stay have you considered SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID on priceline? Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
xtrasalt Posted February 20, 2008 Author Report Posted February 20, 2008 Thanks for the suggestion and I will use your link to book!!! I've never used priceline before and wasn't obviously familiar with it! IYHO (in your humble opinion) would suggest that route?BTW, I'm actually staying 18 nights but have a almost free time share rented for the last week 4/11 - 4/18 of my stay ( 100.00 for week and NO stupid painful sales pitch)My actual time in FL is from 3/30 - 4/18TYChuck
thereuare Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 Priceline is usually a little cheaper than HOTWIRE, but HOTWIRE lets you see the amenities offered (which often, but not in this instance, can you you ID the property)... so if price is the most important aspect than priceline is usually a better option; if you need to know if the hotel will have certain amentiies (like a kitchenette, pool, etc) then HOTWIRE can be the better option.There is a bit more detail here which explains the similarities and differences between the two: I've Never Used Priceline or Hotwire.Give the above a read and feel free to ask any questions that you have... if no questions let us know which direction you'd like to proceed and we'll advise accordingly.
