I'm going to NYC to visit a granddaughter living in the Chelsea area. I was bidding Chelsea, and also three nearby zones - TS, MSG and MTW.
I'd initially bid 3/15/15-3/18/15 (three nights) up to $137 for both 4* and 3.5* with no success.
Plan B was to get an airport hotel (EWR) for my late arrival 3/15, and then just bid two nights downtown.
The airport hotel would be less expensive, so I upped the budget a bit for the downtown nights - $140.
I was working through my plan at the 4* level, including some free rebid zones, in increments of $3.
Nothing at $137. I really wasn't expecting success at $140 4*, so was quite surprised to read my bid had been accepted. I'd already resigned myself to the fact that I'd have to work the 3.5* level, and even that might not work.
The list for this hotel on my dates is $266, so very nice savings.
It looks to be very convenient too, just blocks from both Penn Station and my granddaughter's apartment.
