Hotwire Hotel: 2.5* New York City Airports (JFK) Ramada Plaza

[uniplan]

Hello eveyone,

I am travelling to NYC and staying one night at JFK on Dec 10 and then doing the same on Jan 06. I am flying from JFK both times and I am travelling with my wife and 2 year old son so I want to stay as close to the airport as possible.

Please advise on a hotel booking strategy.

Gratefully yours,

uniplan

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Please use seprate threads for each stay (as you may win a different hotel for each stay, as well, since rates are date specific, the price may be different too). We'll use this thread to reflect your 12/10 stay... please start a NEW TOPIC for your 1/6 stay.

Keep in mind that PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy... i wouldn't expect too much of an issue with a 2 year old as the third person (inside Manhattan is could be an issue, but i would think you'd be ok by the airport, although no guarantees). I have two small children and i always clear it with my wife that if we really had a problem we'd be OK making a 'bed' on the floor with some extra sheets and a blanket (although we haven't had the need to do this yet... but a risk you need to be aware of nonetheless)

If the occupancy issue is not acceptable to you, HOTWIRE does allow you to search for up to triple occupancy.

Let us know how you'd like to proceed as well as your maximum budget for this stay and the minimum star rating you're willing to accept?

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Thanks for the advice. I think I will accept a 4 star and be looking to pay up to US$300 for this stay.

Just to be safe, I would use your HOTWIRE link when I am ready to start booking!

If your plans are firm is there a reason you're waiting to book?

Is HOTWIRE showing any deals at the moment... if so, why not take it?

[uniplan]

Actually,

I will get on it tonight! I am a bit busy with work and home and not the best at juggling....

All done at $113 all in at the Ramada JFK Airport. Thanks!
