resipsa99 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I used the PRICELINE links on this site to start my bidding.Saw that people were getting the 4* Vintage Plaza for $49-52 for January stays. Had previously stayed at the Courtyard downtown (3*) for $49 and thought it was great for the price.Jan 31 tried $39/night for 3.5* Downtown Portland - unsuccessfulFeb 1 tried $43/night for 4* Downtown Portland - unsuccessfulAdded 3.5* at $45/night, still unsuccessfulFeb 2 tried $49/night for 4* Downtown Portland - unsuccesfulAdded 3.5*, stayed at $49/night and was successful (total $174.87 for the 3 night stay)It gave the option of extending at the same rate (but didn't use it).Best price on the Marriott Site - $99/night plus taxes. We're happy at $49, tho I had myself thinking we'd get the Vintage Plaza. Hope that this Marriott is as nice as the Courtyard we stayed at in the summer - that one had just opened, and should have been a 3.5* in our opinion.Thanks to the site and other posters - this information is critical to getting a great deal!
