NECruiser83 Posted July 16, 2016 #579 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I bid 150 on a 4 star and got Sonesta, looks nice! Anyone familiar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.A. Posted August 6, 2016 #580 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Got the same hotel for the following night on Hotwire for $86. LMTclub is $80. From the Hotwire description, I thought it was going to be a different hotel. Oh well, not much of a price difference. FYI, for anyone looking, Hotwire's description is: 3-star, Fort Lauderdale Intl Airport (FLL) South area all-suites hotel. 90% recommended Just curious..what is LMTclub? Im new to the bidding sights. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping to get a cheaper hotel for the one night through Priceline but I don't know what people are bidding for January since I think the Monday January 16 is a holiday in the States. With Canadian exchange rate at $1.34 hotels get expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iluvcruzin Posted August 19, 2016 #591 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Anyone bid/booked Riverside Hotel?Sorry for mid Nov. 11/12 to be specific. Use the Express Deal if you want this hotel. If you bid on 3 1/2 * in downtown you could end up with the Crowne. The Riverside is the one with the Pet symbol. Without is the Crowne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewats784 Posted August 19, 2016 #592 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Just booked a 3 star in the Ft Lauderdale International Airport area. Rodeway Inn Airport/Cruise port January 14-15 $124 + Tax for $165 This motel had some good reviews, we don't get in until after 9, so just looking for somewhere to lay our heads for the night. It has a shuttle from the airport and also to the cruise port. Anyone know if there is any stores close to this motel for our last minute supplies?

Not a bad place if all you need is a reliable motel to crash before the cruise. Stayed here in January of 2015. This place caters to the cruise people and many people will be there to take their shuttle. I would recommend that you get a free first time code from Uber or Lyft and get to the port on your own that way. The motel itself is straight from the 70's with a two story rectangular design around a pool. NO elevator and rooms are assigned first come, first serve, so you'll be stuck on second floor with your late arrival. Deluxe continental breakfast included with I think make your own waffles.

Just my 2 cents, but it appears that PL has lowered it's standards for it's star categories. To me a Rodeway Inn is not 3 star. Also, in the past, when I would bid on 2.5/3 star category I would mostly get the Hyatt Place. This time I got a Quality Inn which to me, is more in the range of 2 star. So be careful when bidding how low you go with your star category. You could end up not happy. Edited August 24, 2016 by 1cruiselvr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starfishee Posted August 24, 2016 #595 Share Posted August 24, 2016 I bid 150 on a 4 star and got Sonesta, looks nice! Anyone familiar? Yes, have stayed there several times and love it! It's a little off the beaten path in that it is on the northern end of the beach, but we still love it! The rooms are beautiful, beds super comfy, view is to die for and it is impeccably clean. It's right across from the beach, maybe about a mile walk to a water taxi stop, there are a variety of restaurants, shops and bars in the area...and really not a bad walk to get to the "main drag" on Fort Lauderdale beach, maybe a mile and a half to two miles. Plenty of great dining along the way! I'd be thrilled to get it for $150!!!! Oh, and do yourself a favor and have either breakfast or lunch at Primanti brothers right next door, delish!!!!

I use Priceline a lot and they have added a bunch of the small motels in Fort Lauderdale. But, I am confused about the above post listing the Rodeway FLL as a 3 star, since Priceline still shows it as a 2 Star. Maybe it's Hotwire? I don't have any experience with them.

Gallivanting Souls Posted August 26, 2016 #597 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Just a thought, You might also check the Hilton MVP sight. I have the Hilton Marina Dec 20, and 21 for $79 + tax and Double Tree Bahiai Mar for $95 + tax Dec 22. Fully cancelable until 24h prior. I could have booked all three nights at Hilton Marina but we choose to move and save enough money for a nights dinner instead. They also offer a shuttle from one hotel to the other so we won't even have to pay cab fare to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Sent from my iPad using Forums I made my comment based upon a previous poster who said they bid on 3 star and got the Rodeway Inn, maybe my location was wrong, but I thought they said FLL. Not matter the exact location, Hollywood or Dania Beach, etc, I still don't consider a Rodeway Inn 3 star hotel but that's my opinion which counts for nothing in most areas of the world. :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you. The Holiday Inn Express on 17th is only a 2.5 star on PL. PL lists that airport Rodeway as 2 Star. My opinion counts even less.....especially at home!

dewats784 Posted August 27, 2016 #600 Share Posted August 27, 2016 My post is for the Rodeway Inn in the FLL area. It was from Hotwire and was listed as a 3 star. I did know this was probably the motel I would get, but as I said, I was looking for something cheap as we won't be arriving in Ft Lauderdale until after 9. I would agree, that it probably should be a 2 star. I will also take the suggestion to get our own transportation with either uber or a taxi, rather than waiting on the shuttle.
