imagine Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 I really lucked out on this one - it's great to get a nice place in Sedona without spending a fortune!! Funny thing -- ever since this afternoon when I won, I thought it was the Poco Diablo. Seems like everyone had been winning the Poco so I just assumed that's what I got. When I started to type up this review, I looked at my itinerary to spell Poco Diablo and realized it was the Hilton - horray!! I'm thrilled!! :) A very nice surprise. :) Anyway, my bidding started at $60 for a resort in Sedona and was rejected. PL countered to $77. I upped my bid to $65 (free re-bid) - success.Hilton Sedona Resort and Spa90 Ridge Trail DriveSedona, AZ 86351March 7-10, 2005Your Offer Price: $65.00Number of Rooms: 1Number of Nights: 3Subtotal: $195.00Taxes and Service Fees: $31.29Total Charges: $226.29 Link to comment
thereuare Posted February 7, 2005 Report Share Posted February 7, 2005 Congratulations once again... looks like you have a nice little trip planned to this area.Always nice when you get a Priceline surprise... to the upside! :) Have a great trip.

imagine Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Thanks for the well-wishes, thereuare! It should be a great trip. Every hotel on my vacation except one will be a priceline hotel. I love being able to stay in nicer places for lesser money. No Days Inn for me this trip! :) Too bad the grand canyon isn't giving out priceline rooms for a reasonable rate. I got rejected on a $40 bid for a 2* in G.C. (Holiday Inn Express) on 3/10 when the 2 week advance rate is $60! And Priceline was giving me a hard time for a lowball bid. Just how much do they want me to go up in bid?? I booked directly and got a $60 rate for the room I wanted (i.e. nonsmoking). Otherwise PL has been giving me awesome deals! Thanks for everything and I'll post reviews when I get back. :) Link to comment

imagine Posted February 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Oh I had no idea. Thanks for the suggestion! I did figure out to start my bidding through savingsbarn.com though. I'm getting there little by little. :) I'll have to go read some more of those helpful threads. Thanks again for all your help! :) Link to comment
