Thanks! As a point of clarification - I had earlier stopped at a bid of $70+ because I just wanted to be a bit more conservative, as a start, and do not want to end up as seemingly overbidding. Given that these are very tough dates (wasn't aware of the Bumbershoot Festival), I am now more willing to increase my bid for a 3* and maybe even considering lowering the star rating to 2.5*/2* eventually.

Does anyone has any luck with 3* Downtown Seattle for the period of 1 Sep to 3 Sep 05? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! Failed bid after i tried the following (adding $5-$6 each time): 1) Downtown seattle, $55 2) Free rebid Lake Union, $60 3) Free rebid U of Washington, $65 4) Free rebid Lynnwood/Edmonds, $71 Did not want to go higher than $70+ cos it would add up to close to $100, plus taxes and service charges.

yes, u are right - it was my first bid for 3* at San Juan. believe that i could have been got it for slightly lower but i was just glad to get a decent hotel room over the busy weekend period for about $100/per room.

sure, will definitely be doing that.
