headtrip Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 I was just looking for 1 night on the way home from Oregon, but nothing biting so far.I have a backup bid in Red Bluff, about 20 minutes north for $67.50+tax, so trying to beat that.Found out Oroville was a free rebid for 2*, but doesn't look promising.Since I'm driving anyways, I'm also bidding Red Bluff and Redding too for the same night.1st Round: Corning + Willows $40, $412nd Round:Corning + Willows $42, $433rd RoundCorning + Willows + Oroville (free rebid) $45, $48, $50 Link to comment
headtrip Posted August 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 I think this is the first 1* hotel I've gotten on priceline.Decided to do it since it's only for 1 night and just for sleeping. I still saved 18% over the regular hotel discount rate and 25% over my backup bid (Super 8 Hotel), and hope they'll allow us to have 2 beds, although this is one of those chains that normally charges extra for that. We are bringing an inflatable mattress and bags so we will be ok in any event.I noticed this Hotel is not on the Hotel List, so you can add it.My Bids were:2* $50 (no rebids)1* $47 winning bid (I had bid $45 in Red Bluff for 1* and did not win, but it is a different city)Americas Best Value Inn - Redding 1-starRedding2220 Pine St.Redding, California 96001Amenities: Color TV w/remote Telephone w/ messaging Reservation and Billing InformationYour Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $47.00Subtotal: $47.00Taxes & Service Fees: $12.98Total Charges*: $59.98= From Hotel Web Site =PROPERTY AMENITIES * AIR CONDITIONING * CABLE TV * CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST * FAX * HBO * INTERNET ACCESS * LOUNGE * MEETING FACILITIES * NON SMOKING ROOMS * OUTDOOR POOL * PETS * RESTAURANT * TRUCK PARKING Link to comment
