Priceline Hotel: 2.5* Boca Raton - Deerfield Beach (West) Courtyard

[TBQ]

I started my bid at $36, based on a previous post, in the Boca Raton - Deerfield West zone (this is the zone that includes the Boca Towne Center mall area, mmy deisred area).

When I received the offer to bid $10 more I added the Boca Raton - Deerfield Beach zone (where there are no 2.5*, taking the chance that an upgrade to 3* was marginally possible) and bid at $38, and won!!

Check-In Date: Wed, Jul 14, 2004

Check-Out Date: Thu, Jul 15, 2004

Your Offer Price: $38.00

Number of Rooms: 1 / Number of Nights: 1

Subtotal: $38.00

Taxes & Service Fees: $10.38

Total Charges: $48.38

Please note (for purposes of the hotel list) that Priceline has tweaked the Boca zone names:

Boca Raton - Deerfield Beach Area (the area near the water)

Boca Raton - Deerfield West Area (the area near the mall - Glades Road office buildings and the mall)

Boca Raton - North (the areas near the office buildings at (and north of) Yamato Road)

As always, it was a pleasure to use the Savings Barn portal to begin my bids :)

Thank you for sharing your results and for placing your hotel bid thru the SavingsBarn.com links.... both are very much appreciated. This 'win' also adds a new hotel to our list. :)

If you know the area at all, can you take a look at our updated PRICELINE FLORIDA list and make sure that all the hotels are properly classified. One change that i noticed in updating the list is that the Deefield Hilton is now in the WEST zone rather than the Deerfield Beach zone.

Thanks again for notifying us of the update and helping out.

thereuare - as far as I can tell, the list is accurate.

The two hotels in Boca North are definitely in the north zone - if you look at the map and see where I-95 and NW 51st intersect, that is where the Doubletree is located - the Homestead is on Congress, just a bit further north from the Doubletree.

For Boca Deerfield West, all three hotels are OK - the Hilton is definitely in this zone, because it sits right along I-95, and is *NOT* near the beach.
