Priceline Hotel: 3* San Diego (Downtown-Harbor Island) U.S. Grant

[TravelGuy]

Ladies & Gentlemen!

*NOW* is the time to plan your summer vacation to San Diego! The U.S. Grant wants your business!

Amazing to see a 3* downtown going for this low, particularly this one. Oddly, showing *sold out* on usgrant.net for both these nights, but available on Expedia for $189, where it's always the first hotel to be displayed. I think something strange is going on here. This is an independently owned hotel, and I wonder if they're trying to max out bookings and revenue prior to selling it. Either that or they're struggling, which I find highly unlikely in today's hotel market, particularly San Diego, which had the highest hotel occupancy rate in the nation last summer.

Hopefully it won't be undergoing renovation when I'm there. Otherwise, this is really an incredible deal for downtown San Diego in August. I also suspect this rate is available for a wide range of other dates. Hope someone will try for below $40 - Miramar would be a free rebid, as would Coronado IMO at that amount.

TG, you are very well traveled and if you say this is a steal than it gets the thumbs up in my book!

I will warn users though about clicking the 'incredible deal' link above... almost froze my computer and a ton of pop-ups.

Thanks for the heads up. I just took the link off, although I was fine with my Google pop-up blocker.

Thanks for keeping the board 'clean' :)
