			<description><![CDATA[ 4* Scottsdale  - Mondrian Scottsdale - $40 - May 27.  After reading the reviews, I think I would rather have had the Doubletree.  But we&#39;re arriving late,
and departing early on the next day, so it&#39;s just a quick place to stay, and for that, it should be just fine. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Was looking for a decent place in Scottsdale to take the family for a few days. Last year we Priceline&#39;d the Scottsdale Resort &amp; Conference Centre
(nice place), but thought we would change our bidding pattern this time around.
<br>
<br>
Added 4* North Scottsdale and bid $60 to take a shot at the Westin and was countered at $77. Re-bid at $65 and received Orange Tree.
<br>
<br>
We are travelling with a 2 year old so this place looks perfect.
<br>
<br>
I always use the A-B link!

			<description><![CDATA[ I&#39;m PSYCHED.  I saw Bryan&#39;s report that the other place going for $40 was pretty good, but I like this location.
<br>
Can we actually walk to old town from this hotel?  We&#39;re from Boston, like to leave the car behind if possible.
<br>
I was hoping I could use extend the stay for days later in the week since we&#39;ll go north in between but I guess
<br>
that doesn&#39;t work.  Whatever, can&#39;t believe the great price.

			<description><![CDATA[ <p><br></p>

<p>There can be lots of free rebids when going for a 4* in Scottsdale b/c there are so many other areas to add to the bidding that don&#39;t have a 4*, but I
didn&#39;t need to use any of them, first bid was the lowest allowable by PL for a 4*, $40, which was accepted.  The bid was for 2 rooms for 5 nights Dec. 27,
09 to Jan. 1, 2010.  The price on the hotel website for that period was $126 per room.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Used the PL link on the A-B site to support BFT, thx... ]]></description>
