thereuare Posted August 18, 2016 Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 At current rates i don't think you're likely to be successful at $120 or less... at the moment i think you're more likely looking in the $160-$185/range. If you want to give it a try anyway you can try as follows: Select 3* Civic Center South, Financial, USE, Japantown, Marina... Bid $80, if rejected add Richmond...

teezee14 Posted August 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2016 No luck, any suggestions to stay in that price range during that time period? Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Only option(s) i see at the moment for a 3* hotel is including the Airport zones OR lowering your star rating to 2*.

teezee14 Posted August 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Could you put a bidding strategy together with the following criteria: Star Rating: 2 or higher City and Zone: Priceline - Japan Town, Marina, Union Square East Travel Dates: September 14-17, 2016 Room Rate: $120/night Amenities: N/A Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 I will but i don't think that is going to cut it... you will more likely need to include the South San Francisco zone to be successful.

teezee14 Posted August 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 I ended up getting the Americas Best Value Inn & Suites - San Francisco Airport for $115. A little far from all the action, but for this price I'll take it. Thanks for all your help! I'm going to be in San Diego, LA, Yosemite, and Vegas as well. Can I post on this same thread?

thereuare Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 Congratulations on your success! Glad to see you were able to find a hotel within your budget and that this property should work well for your plans this trip. Thank you for sharing your win with the board and helping us add this property to the Priceline Hotel List. 11 hours ago, teezee14 said: I'm going to be in San Diego, LA, Yosemite, and Vegas as well. Can I post on this same thread? We would be happy to help, but please create a NEW TOPIC for each stay (in the corresponding state category) and we will assist you there. We keep all posts for the same stay (ie- dates) in the same thread, but different stays (ie- dates) go in their own thread, this way the topic title of each thread can be used to reflect the ultimately purchase (as you can see the topic title has now been changed of this thread) as well as having each win have its own link in our Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins and Priceline Maps. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Enjoy your stay and this leg of your trip.
