I have to say that my husband and I have been using PL for 3+ yrs. for hotels and have been completed happy with every single hotel that we've gotten. Like many people say, different strokes for different folks... but we will never pay FULL price again for a hotel - we love this option to name our own bids, locations, star rating, etc.
This bid was just accecpted on 7/06/09 (at 3:45 p.m. EST).
Date of the reservation: Sunday, Aug. 9, 2009 - Wednesday, Aug. 12, 2009
Number of rooms: 1 - (I called the hotel after the win, and they said the room will accomodate 3 quest without any problems.)
Number of nights: 3 nights post-cruise
Hotel: Crowne Plaza Los Angeles Harbor
Rating: 3 1/2 *'s
Area: SanPedro
Site: Priceline
I had first placed a bid on the San Pedro area with a price of $63 (USD), the price was rejected. Then I got on my husbands laptop, bid with a different bank card, and added the Long Beach option and offered a bidding price of $66.00 (USD). This 2nd offer was taken right away.
I also had to pay $37.42 in tax and service fees for a total of $235.42, but this was a steeler deal compared to the full price of the room per night at this hotel.
Thank you all for your faithful posting and help in this room. :D
