correct...
3* downtown would be my first choice.
then 3* Airport zone.
i've bidded up to $95 with no luck. my last bidding session was on 8/5 (using the board link).
thanks!
how were you able to have a lot of rebids on 2.5* lake union?
i thought there's only 1 free re-bid...everett.
am i missing something?
sorry, i'm new to this and still learning... :)
i've seen others win DT 3* @ $120 per the win calendar.my max bid for 2.5* / 3* would be $95/night/room.
my bad! documented wins are $120 for 4* DT zone.
so maybe i can get lucky and get 3* for $95...
i'll keep trying... :)
i guess my rates would be a little higher because it's just a few days before labor day weekend...stronger demand for hotels as you said.
with that in mind, i'm willing to settle for DT 2.5* to have a better chance of winning since i've seen others win DT 3* @ $120 per the win calendar.
my max bid for 2.5* / 3* would be $95/night/room.
3* airport zone is fine as well. so parents can take shuttle instead of leaving with us and waiting around the airport waiting for their flight to depart.
max bid...$95 for 3*.
as far as back-up, i have a few options:
- stay with aunt who lives in south seattle
- stay with cousin (aunt's daughter) who has a house all to herself in bellevue, i believe
- stay @ naval lodge everett (dad is USN Retired) for $58/nite
^none of the above options i really want to do...although staying @ the naval base isn't too bad. per google only 20 miles away from downtown. we'll just
deal with traffic and parking. i'll remind dad to bring his handicap placard.
i'm ready to bid since it's been over 24 hours from my last bid...i'll wait for advice.
thanks for a great site!
i've been bidding for almost a week now (using your PRICELINE link) sometimes bidding
up to $95/night for Downtown and Airport zones with no luck.
i need 2 rooms for 2 nights (08/26-08/28) for my family [2 adults + 2 kids, 3yr + 5yr] +
my parents.
we will have a rented a mini-van, so ideal location would be Downtown or Seattle Airport zone...even 2.5* @ lake union is fine (i've bidded up to $80 with no luck).
i've seen some people win airport zones @ $60/night...i'm wondering how come i can't seem to win that rate :)
is it because i need 2 rooms? should i bid on 1 room @ a time? but then again i wouldn't want us to get separate hotels from my elderly parents.
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
