The Super 8 will be the farthest away we've ever been. I would love to do Priceline, but I don't want to get locked into a hotel that I'll whine about - and DH doesn't want that either

I know gottaluv uses it often.<< I just tried to bid on Priceline & went up to $56 a night & was still turned down. ;( I've used them in the past, the problem I have is they only have to give you one bed. We got the Candlewood Suites one time for $45 a night, but they would only give us a king bed. For 4 people, the just doesn't work. So unless I get a screamin deal, I don't use Priceline.

Originally Posted By wendebird You've been lucky! We stayed at the Hyatt & they would only give us a King bed as well, but they did send up a rollaway. The room was way too tight, but it was a place to sleep. I made dh sleep with the kids & I took the rollaway. ;D But to me, it has to be a screamin deal to be inconvenienced in that way.

Originally Posted By wendebird I agree, it's very humorous & gross at the same time. However, if you read the more recent reviews, it sounds like they did a very good renovation & that the staff cares. That's a huge deal in these small Anaheim hotels.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb We stayed there in October and true, it's not great. But neither is it a complete pit. It wasn't much different then the room we had across the street at the Super 8. It's biggest problem is it is OLD and looks it.
