I tried hotwire up to $160 for equivalent rating without success
I tried several bids in the past few days with no luck.
Today, I noticed that the prices on HOTWIRE were down a little bit: 2* $99 for the same stay.
First bid:
$70 2.5* Yarmouth area,
then $75 with fallmouth and
finally $80 accepted, same areas but extended to 2*
I think it's a good deal for the labour day weekend!
083108 to 090108 - 2rooms
Bid $80 rejected - (Quincy - Faneuil Hall - Financial District)
Added zone re-bid $85 rejected - (Copley Square - Theatre District)
Added zone re-bid $90 rejected - (Cambridge)
Added zone re-bid $95 rejected - (Medford - Somerville)
Added zone re-bid - (Brighton - Brookline) => $100 accepted for 4* Hilton FDistrict
Hotwire rate for a 4* in same area, for same date is currently $132
3* Newport Marriott, Newport, RI
$180 for Friday 8/29-8/30/08, 2 ROOMS
1st bid of $180 for 3* Newport/Goat Island was accepted.
I feel so bad to see some winning bids around 70 for the same day. However, the lowest rate on Hotwire today for the same date is $200 for a 2stars and $335 for a 3stars so I don't believe I could have had the same luck!
hi,
just lost the following bid for Friday and Saturday August 1st and 2nd
2* Atlantic city west $85
added Atlantic city area + $10
added somers point for $105 with no result
Regular rate with PRICELINE is $110 for a 2* hotel in West Atlantic City so I'll give up with the bids !!
Yesterday, I started at $90 and increased by $10 with each of my free rebids (South Boston, Somerville, Bedford) but I stopped at $100.
Today was my last chance, so I started at 90 for Quincy Market, increased by 10 up to $120 for the 3 free rebids areas.
Final rebid with Waterfront at $125 to get the Westin Boston Waterfront.
HOTWIRE equivalent stay was $142.
Unsuccessful bidding. :)
Wanted to stay in 4* in:
Quincy Market - Faneuil Hall - Financial District
for 2 nights (5/24/08-5/25/08), started at $80 / night and went up to $100 / night, using the following "free re-bid" zones :
Brighton - Brookline
Medford - Somerville
South Boston
I tried again with just 1 night but didn't work either :)

initial bid $60 for Union Square East/West
added Marina and won Parc 55 Hotel for $70/night. :)
