Total cost 76.38

Started at $90 and bid up in $3 increments by adding zones with no 4 star hotels until i won at $120.

First bid at $55 was accepted. Hotel is somewhat out of town, but the hotels internet rate of $149 is way above the 55 i'm paying (68.53 after taxes).

Bidding for a 2.5 star in downtown for the last several days. Was rejected starting in the mid 50's all the way up to my last bid of 97. Finally hit at 105 and was upgraded to this 3.5 star hotel.

Started bidding at $45 and went up in $5 dollar increments adding other zones with no *3.5 hotels. Hit at $65. Was hoping for a downtown Bellevue hotel but will have to settle for this one!

Selected 4* Downtown with starting bid of $60. Rejected twice after increasing bid $3 each time and adding new zone each time (more expensive zones) until accepted at $69. The Westin Bonaventure internet rate for the same day is $169, so this is a great deal!

Bid $50 for 3* in San Francisco South...rejected Rebid $51 for 3* for South & Lombard(no 3*)...rejected. Rebid $51 for 2.5* in San Francisco South & Lombard...accepted.
