Priceline Hotel: 3* San Diego (Mission Valley) Holiday Inn

[thesqueegeekid]

My parents are flying into Phoenix for the holidays ... and to help with the wedding planning.

We decided on a short trip to San Diego for Christmas to visit family.

I tired 4* La Jolla up to $50 and was shocked not to win the Hyatt :)

I than tried Rancho Bernardo up to $48 for a 3* and also failed at Del Mar up to $40 (just trying for fun of it .. as the hotels in this zone all charge for parking so it wasn't that preferred)

I would love to have bid 2.5* for Mira Mesa (free breakfast at a rez inn) but unfortunatly, PL Vacations showed the 3* Prime Hotel as the cheapest in the zone and I feared the likely upgrade ... Most Prime Hotels are converted old Wyndhams and Radissons and should be avoided!!!

PL/Vac showed the Holiday Inn as the cheapest for Mission Valley and the reviews were decent ... so, I tried $38 and got a counter to add $11, I bid $40 and finally won at $41. Than, added a second room.

This is the toughest part of all as everyone has a vision of what your wedding should be like. Of course my parents and in-laws were excellent (note: they read the board :) )

As always thanks for sharing your win(s). Continued good luck with your plans as your day approaches.
