Can't believe I missed this thread earlier in the week. Surely Marriott City Center is a 3.5* hotel on priceline, right? I was afraid to bid for the 3* because I don't want the Holiday Inn Raleigh-Brownstone hotel. At maybe 11:49pm tonight I placed a bid of $40 for 3.5* Raleigh zone. Bid failed. Darn. Added Raleigh south (which has no 3.5* hotels) and bid $45 at about 11:50pm. Got a message that I can't bid for a hotel on the same night. I guess 11:50pm is tomorrow on priceline? congrats man on getting that hotel for $40. That's an awesome deal. Wish I could have gotten that as well.
