Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Long Beach Hilton

[golfman333]

Hi everyone I was looking for a good place to stay in long beach ca for a reasonable price. I really did not want to spend more than 60 a night and preferably at the long beach area (Not airport). Looking for dates from 6/26-6/29 or 6/30. Any suggestions? Any tips would be great thanks everyone

I should have been a little more specific. I definitely would like 3* or higher if possible for under or around that price of 60 dollars a day. Didnt know if I should look at airport zone as well but I would prefer long beach down by the pike and what not. Please let me know of any strategies or suggestions. thanks

Are you willing to pay more for a 3.5* vs. a 3* or is the goal the least expensive 3* or better?

Is $60 your maximum bid price or your 'all-in' (including fees and taxes) price? (if all-in price please let us know your maximum bid price)

Are your dates not yet firm, is your check-out date flexible in making this a 3 nite or 4 nite stay?

I'm not very picky but 60 is not my all in price. Just the max of what I wanted to bid. And this may turn into a 4-5 night stay as well. I would def prefer a 3.5* if I could obtain it for even a couple more dollars. Anything within the range of $50-$60 for a 3* to 4* per night (not all in). Any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!

4* bidding isn't offered in Long Beach. 3.5* is as high as it goes.

When bidding for a 3.5* in Long Beach you have one free rebid zone, Long Beach Airport. LB Airport only goes to 3*, so you can safely add it to your 3.5* bids in other zones without risk of winning a hotel in LB Airport zone.

I suggest bidding $52 for a 3.5* in Long Beach. Then add your free rebid zone and bid $55.

If rejected wait 24 hours and repeat the same at $57 and $60.

If those don't work we can give a separate strategy for 3*.

If you don't understand free rebidding please ask for more info.

Please use this PRICELINE link when you bid. Good luck!

So after a lot of trying and no luck for check in on june 27th and check out wednesday july 1 for long beach, ca I finally decided to change my check in day. I was getting no luck with even up to $65 a night in long beach for saturday check in for 3*. So I just decided to check in sunday and got the Hilton Long Beach on Ocean Blvd for $59 a night. This is good because of the location and 3.5*. So it is $279 total for my four nights (checking out thursday) and I am pretty pleased with the win. Of course I used Priceline to book this hotel. Thanks for your suggestions. Finally got a winner!
