We are needing a downtown hotel for the above dates. Not super picky ... but would take higher as it seems sometimes the 4* are cheaper than the 2*! I've been haphazardly bidding the last couple days ... but thought I'd seek some "professional" advice! My bids have been rejected up to $90 range/night ... although today was told if I increased by $22 (on bid of $85 for 2.5*) they would "reconsider" without needing to change locations or star levels. Willing to wait a day or so and start over with any suggestions. Thanks sue
