Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Orange County (Disneyland-Orange-Garden Grove) Crowne Plaza

Got it on my first bid of $40. Lowest direct website price was $76 (before taxes and fees). Pretty good deal I think. I would have rather stay at a nicer 4* hotel in Costa Mesa for slightly more...but I found out they charge $15-20 for parking per night...so this was a much better deal since parking is FREE!!

Used the PRICELINE link also! Thanks betterbidding :)

Parking isn't really free here as there is a 'Resort' fee of $12 per day which includes parking...

Parking sure isn't FREE here. The last time I stayed here in Nov 2009 it was $12 a day which is part of the resort fee and it also includes free high speed internet in your room, just bring your own laptop. Also another tip, they also put a hold on your credit card of $100 a day for room security. They've been having too many problems with people smoking in the rooms and breaking things in the room, but primarily for smoking in the room. They take the hold off after you check out though. Hopefully that has changed and they no longer put a hold on your credit card anymore when you check in.

Yes, I found out about the $12 "resort fee" upon check in. It's just really annoying because I called the hotel directly before booking through priceline and they expressly told me there was NO parking fee. Never mentioned the "resort fee"....which includes parking. Tricky tricky.
