Hi there,

Here is my win of today. I took advantage of the 9 re bid zones and started at 140. I wasn't willing to go above 205 because of the express deal (or hotwire secret hot rate) at $209. 

This is not a big win since I ended up with my maximum bet. It's still 26% cheaper than the cheapest public rate for this Hyatt! :)

Room Price: $205.00 /room night
Rooms: 1
Nights: 2
Room Subtotal: $410.00
Taxes & Fees: $77.48
Total Charged Today: $487.48

I had seen this button, dumb me!

Thanks again thereuare for your great help today. I've been able to cancel my previous booking just in time, and I obtained the Club Quarters Washington DC at $73/night on Friday and Saturday night.

It's seems like an okay-type hotel but still rated 3,5 stars, with an awesome location so that's great!

When I clicked on the link you posted for the room at $81 I saw it at $74 so I was going to stop my bidding at $73, I guess I would have had the same hotel anyway.

Should I post a separate thread with this win?

Thanks again,

Rodolphe

OK I see, sorry for not being clear enough.

In that case, let's say that what I want is the least expensive 3,5 stars, and it has to be under $100.

Does this make sense?

Thank you

Thanks thereuare for your quick reply.

You're right, I fogot to mention my goal.

My goal is to spend less than $100 on a 3* or, ideally, better rating.

Thank you!

Hi there,

I have a reservation in the Grand Hyatt Washington DC for two nights on Jan 30 and 31, $130 / night.

I'd like to see what better deal I can obtain from priceline or another bidding website and cancel my current reservation (I need to cancel by 3PM EST today).

I would need a room for two in downtown, area 11 or 5 in priceline (White House or Capitol Hill north.)

The hotel would need to be 3 stars or above.

We would check in late on Friday night (flight arriving around midnight).

Thank you for any help you can bring!

Best,

Rodolphe

Hi,

Thanks to both of you!

For next week we are looking at BnB at this time, since all hotels are actually already booked.

We are looking in the same areas I mentioned and are seeing things in $100 range so far so we'll try this way.

Thanks,

T.

I'm sorry I forgot to mention this.

I should be staying there from Monday 8th to Sunday 14th.

I could maybe go just from Monday to Friday if it drops the price!

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I'm relocating to Chicago and trying to find a not-too-expensive place for my first week there. I am looking mainly in the North Michigan Ave area, but could also look in The Loop if my bidding is unsuccessful in the previous area.

What would be a reasonable max rate to pay for a 3.5 star in these areas? I'm thinking $100 as a maximum, is this realistic?

Thanks for your help!

T.
