Priceline Hotel: 3* Fresno Four Points Fresno

[pterrell]

The wife wanted a 4*, but "accepted" a 3* when I explained Fresno doesn't have any 4*. :)

I first tried the poorly named "Pinedale/UC Fresno" zone, hoping for the Residence Inn. But bidding up to $70/night for 3* went nowhere.

Started bidding on the Fresno zone with $49/night. Rebid $52/night accepted.

This will be my first time staying at the Four Points after years of driving past it.

Your Offer Price: $52.00

Number of Rooms: 1

Number of Nights: 3

Subtotal: $156.00

Taxes and Service Fees: $28.51

Total Charges*: $184.51

I started my bidding from the BetterBidding PRICELINE links.

Congratulations on your success!

Trying out new properties is some of the fun of using PRICELINE.

Hope you enjoy your stay... if anything, you'll gain a new perspective each time you drive by in the future!

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.

Enjoy your stay.

This will be my first time staying at the Four Points

I'm surprised there's a hotel in Fresno where you haven't stayed, pterrell!

There's plenty of motels I've avoided, that's for sure. Although I think back to my pre-PRICELINE days and using the coupon books for cheaper stays along Motel Drive.

I'd tried several times to stay at the Four Points, but it was always showing up about $10 more on HOTWIRE than the Radisson, LQ, and HI. And I never won it on any PRICELINE bids. I'm trying to remember if that's because it was part of the old Fresno NW zone.

And I haven't stayed at any of the newer places in NW Fresno except the Extended Stay.

Colfax, I would think you've stayed at most of the Hotels in California!!

BTW, I extended my stay by a day at the Four Points. (Another day sorting through the remains of my burned-down parents' house looking for family "heirlooms" that survived, as the salvage company hauled out the debris...)

Sorry to hear of the event that brought you to Fresno... best wishes that this time goes as best as can be expected for you and your family and that your most treasured possessions are recovered in good condition.

I'm sorry to hear about your mother's house, pterrell.

Although I think back to my pre-PRICELINE days and using the coupon books for cheaper stays along Motel Drive.

Coupon books...Motel Drive...you're bringing back lots of memories. How did we live before PRICELINE?
