I don't understand your statement to click on each of the links to continue the discussion, the links merely take me directly to PRICELINE.

Which zones have you bid at the 4* level and which zone(s) are acceptable at the 3.5*/3* level?

I bid the MTE, MTW, ESB, HK, TS, Soho, and Chelsea. I basically bid the same areas for 3.5*/3* just at a lower price.

MTE - some 'known' hotels can be up to a 15 minute walk to the subway... is this acceptable?

No, I don't want to walk that far to get to public transportation.

CPS - has the Hudson Hotel, which while well located, has notoriously small rooms (~140 sq. ft.).. is this acceptable?

no.

My husband and I are trying to visit New York City and have been unsuccessful bidding on priceline using the bidding strategies listed in similar post. I'm wondering if the dates are preventing us from getting a 4* for under $170. We are really on a budget and would welcome any advice on getting a nice room at a great price, we're open to a 3.5* rating or even 3* if we know its in a decent area.
