Hello All, first post here, been lurking for awhile. Looking for 3.5* and up, willing to split my stay between two hotels if need be. I don't have a set budget but after getting a 4* on priceline last summer for $135/night my expectations are high. I have tried all the priceline tricks spelled out on these board and gave up around ~149/night. Countless combinations, ended up picking every area under Central Park. Discouraged bidder, looking for some help! Maybe waiting until closer to August would help?
