Thanks for the suggestions, but the room is only for 2, so I don't need the extra space. I've just bid MTE+MTW up to $175 with no success via the savingsbarn link. As noted, I already have what is supposed to be a nice quality backup at the Hilton Garden Inn for around $180, but I am hoping to get something better, and my stay is in around 3 weeks. Most of the postings I've seen around then are for weekends, so not much guidance there. So, based on prior experience (and knowing that there are never any guarantees), would I be better off holding off for a few days or a week in the hopes that new supply will be added by PL (possibly at lower potential rates), or is it more likely that this is as good as it gets such that I should continue bidding from $180 if I'd like the chance at a 4* property? Thanks again!
