RiverCola Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I was bidding for days now to get a hotel in Beverly-Hills/West-Hollywood OR Santa-Monica-Marina del Rey each bid starting with one of these areas and then adding free-rebids. I have tried everything from $90 to $120 but was constantly rejected. Today finally it worked out!Started with Santa Monica and $111, adding Culver City/Lawndale/Redondo and raising with a few dollars. Then added Beverly Hills-West Hollywood with $119 and was accepted by the Andaz. I was kind of hoping to win Le Petit (although standard rooms don't seem very luxurious) but my bids of $105 were rejected all the time. Don't really know if I'm going to like the Andaz, but....it's on Sunset, has a rooftop pool with views and looks pretty classy, so what could go wrong!Of course I used your PRICELINE link!!(PS: haven't seen any 4* wins for Santa Monica recently......is it hard to win a hotel in that area nowadays?)
