I'm also a 1st time Priceline bidder. So, I have a question or two... if ya don't mind.
My DH and I are looking for a resort in the Orlando area for this May 16-19. When I've searched for listed properties, it only lists: Gaylord, WDW Swan, & Hilton (in DWV) and JW Marriott Grand Lakes, Marriott Orlando Wolrd Center, & Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress (in Universal Studio/SeaWorld).
Question 1: Any suggestion on starting price? (dates are Fri-Sun)
Question 2: What are the chances that I'm going to get stuck with something other than those 3 resorts if I bid on Resort in Universal Studio/SeaWorld area?
Basically, we don't really want the Swan or Hilton, so we are staying away from DWV... but, I would feel better knowing that I will at least probably get one of those listed 3 in the US/SW area... all of which I would be very happy with.
Question 3: Has anyone had similar circumstances (resorts A, B, & C coming up as available) and getting resort D, E, or F?
Question 4: Anyone gotten a bad resort through Priceline???
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
