Just to let you know...I just won Crowne Plaza (3*) in Secaucus (just across Hudson River w/transportation nearby) for $121 a night- October 11-15, 2007. Not a bad purchase at all...I started with bid for $99 on Secaucus 3* & was told I could re-bid immediately if I increased bid by $22, which I did & won. Also- I added cancellation insurance ($20 total)- allows options when time gets closer. Good luck!
