Bidding for one night May 8, 2007. Prefer 2 star level or higher - bidding in these Manhattan areas (downtown, midtown east, midtown south, midtown west, upper midtown cp south). Bid $69 for 2.5 star, then rebid same for 2 star rejected. After 24 hrs bid $75 for same, rejected. After 24 hrs bid $81 for same. Accepted for 2 star in Midtown South. Best Western Convention Center Midtown South 522 W 38th St Total for one night with taxes and fees - $102.22. This is less than we spent per night to stay in Manhattan on our first trip 23 years ago! Snagged round trips on Jet Blue (no ice in May I hope) for only $114 each all-in round trip from Houston - so this will be a nice quick theater trip to the Big Apple.
