ansub1976 Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Me and two other friends are travelling to Dallas next weekend to see the King Tut exhibit. We wanted separate hotel rooms close to the Downtown area. I started bidding for a 3.5* hotel at $30 for Dallas Downtown area. The bid was rejected. I bid $35 after including Dallas Love Field - Market Center zone. The price was accepted.Crowne Plaza Dallas Market Center7050 Stemmons FreewayDallas, TX 75247214-630-8500 Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $35.00 (USD) Number of Rooms: 3 Number of Nights: 1 Room Subtotal: $105.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $23.88 (USD) Total Room Cost: $128.88 (USD) Orbitz lists this hotel as a 4 * (though some user reviews on Tripadvisor say this is closer to a 3*) and the rack rate is $99 for the cheapest room ($119 with taxes). So we almost got 3 rooms for the price of one!I started the bidding from the PRICELINE links here. Thank you very much for running this great website. Link to comment
