Took me a few tries, started with downtown at $120 for 4 star yesterday; ran out of bid strategies so I waited 24 hours. First bid downtown/Pikes Place 3.5 stars for $131; added Downtown/Space Needle district and scored the Silver Cloud at $136. Not as grand of a deal as I sometimes get but I still saved $23 over the current booking rate of $159. Thanks to this site for all the tips, tricks and hotel lists!
