At this point, I decided that I would rather pay approximately $115 for a 4* room versus $100 or so for a 3* room, as I had a backup 3* room available to reserve at an average of $136/night. I thus started 4* 03/30/05 (Wed) - 04/04/05 (Mon), as I figured I could find a room for 03/29/05 if the bid were to go through. - Started (St Germain/Latin Qtr/Montparnasse) $110, was countered @$132. - Added (Champs Elysees/Opera West), $113.......And we have a winner!!!!: Le Meridien Montparnasse (4*) Your Offer Price: $113.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 5 Subtotal: $565.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $53.57 Total Charges: $618.57 I attempted to add a night via Priceline for the first night 03/29/05) and received a message that Priceline could not add nights for this particular hotel.
