I just received my membership materials, there is an upgrade certificate and a coupon for 50% off a Friday or Saturday night stay, thanks for the tip.

Thanks for the tip, I think I will contact them in advance. Anyone know how soon Priceline transmits my name and reservation number to the hotel?

Received my Omni club membership thanks to the tip on this board. One coupon good for a room upgrade and another good for 50% on a Friday or Saturday night stay. Nice.

$126, $121, $116, $111, $106 went 4* only figuring on trying to get the Omni in order to use the upgrade certificate

4* Omni Shoreham did 5 free rebids for a 4 star Dupont Circle didn't intend to go this high but ended up with a successful bid of $131.00 Thursday Oct 27 and Friday October 28 Saved a few bucks and will use the Omni upgrade certificate which should arrive before then by signing up for their club. Thanks for the advice.

Dupont Circle - Woodley Park 4* Omni Shoreham did 5 free rebids for a 4 star Dupont Circle didn't intend to go this high but ended up with a successful bid of $131.00 Thursday Oct 27 and Friday October 28 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 2 Subtotal: $262.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $45.41 Total Charges: $307.41 Saved a little money but I plan on using the Omni upgrade certificate when I check in so the stay should be a little more enjoyable as well

Thanks for the confirmation. I will try up to $120 4 star Dupont Circle for Thursday and Friday and post my results. If I can save $70 that could pay for a dinner!

I want to stay in the same place Thursday and Friday night.

WTK = Want To Know I really don't want to work on Tuesday and Wednesday, I want to stay at the Willard. I want Dupont Circle for Thursday and Friday for less than $153.

I have tried several bids for Dupont Circle. I have bid 4 star and added no 4 star zones from $70 by $5 increments to $100 without success for 2 nights for Thursday and Friday night Oct. 27 and 28. 3 days later I then went 4 star and 3 star and did multiple free bids from $70 to $85. I am booked downtown at the Willard at $153 for that Tuesday and Wednesday (business downtown - government rate). But I like to stay a couple extra days and enjoy the night life and be near Dupont. I have stayed before at the Adams Morgan Metro stop at the Marriott Wardman Park and the Omni Shoreham and those work well, I have stayed in Foggy Bottom once for a week and would never do that again due to the lack of easy Metro access. I second everything that TravelGuy has said on the issue. I have a great Dupont Circle hotel (my personal rating 4*) booked at $153 for Thursday and Friday night so I really don't want to go over $100 or so for an uncertainty. I would be happy to get the Churchhill or Weston. But I do not want to end up at the Courtyard by Marriott at Woodley Park for $100. Is the Thursday night stay the extra cost night? Any suggestions. I have plenty of time to snag something and I have a two very good back up reservations. I want to stay :) downtown Tuesday and Wednesday and at Dupont Thursday and Friday. Suggestions?
