I was not able to find a hotel over the last few days in my price range, so I will have to go with the backup. Thank you for the help, hope to have better luck next time.

I'm still trying to bid on priceline and hope not to use the backup. I bid up to $180 today and was rejected. If the lowest price on Express is about $240, what do you think it would take to win a bid? $200? $220? $230?

I made an spg rewards reservation at the Le Meridien Arlington (10,000 points).

Okay, I made backup reservations for now and I'm going to hope for the best.

What do you think is the minimum bid needed to land a 4*? Also, any chance that the prices drop before next week?

I have to be in DC for business. I don't really want to go below a 4* but I am willing to pretty flexible on location and would consider all downtown zones as well as places that have a relatively short metro ride (ex: arlington area). I prefer not to bid above $150. Some of the best quotes from MAPS and HOTELS.com are $289 for the Le Meridien Arlington and $299 for the Graham Georgetown. Of course, I will use your links. Thanks

Hi, I'm looking for a 4* in DC for 3/25-3/26. I've been bidding in the White-House-Downtown and Capitol Hill areas (started from $80 and went all the way up to $150) and have had no luck. I did notice that the Priceline.express deals seem to be very high (maybe some conventions in town). Any advice would be much appreciated. Ron
