Help w/Hotel Selection & discounter info

[dbb00]

Hi, well... my vacation is just a week away. After lots of time reading and searching every site I could find, I decided to try priceline for my hotel, only problem is, I didn't get a hotel. I attempted several times, different areas and star levels, up to the max I was willing to pay, but no hotel. lol.

So, now I'm desparate. I am searching frantically and now find that many of the hotels are sold out for the dates I have to have. Yes, I know, wrong time to go, but it is the only time I have. Should have booked earlier, but lack of finances prevented it. So, here I am.

Here's my question(s): Has anyone ever used Easyclicktravel.com to book before? Are they okay? Any problems? Seedy..etc? Also has anyone ever used hotelmartusa.com with the same questions?

My travel dates are April 2 - April 9. There will be 2 people and I am looking for a nice clean hotel with a nice swimming pool area. It does not have to be fancy or extravagant. Just clean and worth the money. I am looking at the possibilities of Holiday Inn Maingate West, Travel Lodge Suites East Gate and Ramada Plaza Hotel & Inn Getaway. Is anyone familiar with any of these and can provide some feedback on yes or no for them?

Or if anyone knows of a great deal for this time period or a hotel discounter I might not have tried, and I think I've tried them all...lol.. please let me know.

Thanks so much.

I don't know exactly where you want to be located....but my friends always stay at the Best Western Plaza on Int'l Drive for a good rate, with pool, right in the middle of everything on Int'l.

I think at this point, using an internet wholesaler to book your trip may be cutting it real close for them to contact each other, send out confirmations, etc....I'd hate to get to a hotel and find out reservations weren't confirmed yet.

Good luck

You would be a perfect candidate for SkyAuction. They ahve lots of last minute unused timeshare weeks. A good portion of the ones that have are for specific times, and those sometimes even go unsold because of the dates. i would check there (www.skyauction.com).

Also, I looked at HotelKingdom.com. They showed lots of openings for your dates, but most were real expensive or kind of far away. Wouldn't hurt to look, though. Some of them do offer immediate confirmation, so you wouldn't have to worry about delays.

Hotelmartusa is supposed to be pretty good.
