This past weekend was very scary. We are teo ladies in our 60s that needed a hotel for 3 nights in a city I don't know. We went on priceline and picked the areas within an OK driving, and from middle on up in price. The hotel was OK. Not as clean as it could be. But it was the only occupied building on the dead end street. The other hotels were failing down, homeless were living there. In fact two tred to stop us on the road to the hotel. They knew where we went, deadend st. We thoght from the middle rating on up would be safe, how can you trust these name your own price deals.

I guess it is a what you are looking for, how many star hotel, one rule is never to bid on anything that is not a 4 start or better.
The other, some of the best hotels in Atlanta are within a block of homeless and they will be on the street all around these places.
*** they don't want to beg where poor people are.
There is no way if you use priceline to pick a specific hotel, just general areas

Thanks but, It was in a very depressed area, buildings falling down, rats, etc. The highest was 4, I thought 3 would be safe.
