SouthCentral Posted June 13, 2009 Report Posted June 13, 2009 First time using PRICELINE and Better Bidding. Fantastic!Originally I was bidding for Jun 06, 2009 in another zone, but added downtown zone thinking no one would take me for $50. (Didn't see it on the Betterbidding - Priceline Map) I was wrong! :) Oh well. Ended up adding Jun 5 for another $50 as well. Very happy with the result.Decent work out room, sauna, and a smaller pool. Free internet in the form of WiFi and two internet terminals (including one with a printer) for those who don't have a laptop etc. were quite handy.Good sized room with a safe and updated bathroom. The fold out bed was kind of lumpy as a sofa, but I didn't use it much anyway.Some money saving tips:If you have a car, you could try parking overnight on the street to save yourself the $20. Just watch the hours that they patrol as they vary from night to night.Better yet, just take the TTC (bus/streetcar/subway). A day pass is $9, and on the weekend is good for two adults and a few kids!There's also a 24 hour Metro supermarket within 5 minute walk to the NE that is a lot cheaper than the store next door if you're looking for snacks, food, and water.
