First bid, 70. Gave me option to raise my bid to 88 without changing anything, but I declined. Added a region and raised bid to 75, then 80. Accepted at 80. Booked for 9/14 and 9/15.
I'm very impatient so I just decided to go ahead and try to figure it out for myself. I started at 75 for 3* in downtown Seattle. Rejected. Rebid with different zones at 80 and 85, both rejected. Decided I would try one final time and had my bid of 90 accepted for the Renaissance Seattle. List price is 279 a night, so I'm happy. Hopefully the hotel works out and maybe I will use PRICELINE again.
Hi, I have never bid on Priceline before so I am looking for some advice. I already have arrangements for the beginning of my trip, and am just looking for a room for the night before we leave- 8/11. I would like to stay downtown and in a hotel with at least 3 stars. Anything under 120 would be good and I was thinking of starting my bidding at 80 or so. Most people seem to be bidding at 90, is that a better starting place? Thanks for any advice.
