Having booked a room via priceline and after reading a numerous views on the Park Central, NY I was a bit apprehensive upon arriving. However the check in desk staff were friendly and glad to hep with all my requests, the lobby looked great! The room was OK, the bedding and the bathroom were nice and clean and the d

Success at last!!! :) :) Select 3* UM/CPS and MTW and... Bid $145 I was successful with the Park Central Hotel just as you had envisaged. Many thanks for you continued help and support. I will certainly use again!!! xxxmerlin

Nope.....still no luck :) I guess i'll have to add UM/CPS..... TIA

Ok....so I dont think that i'll get a 4* within my budget, so I would appreciate if you could supply a 3* strategy. I still have the same budget, but do you think I should/could lower the budget....your advice much appreciated. thx

Failed on that bidding strategy :) Still debating to downgrade to 3*....will keep you informed Thanks for all you help so far!! :)

4* re-bid zones: UES:2*,3* UWS:1*,2*,2.5* 3* re-bid zones: UWS:1*,2*,2.5* If I have this correct, I think i understand the re-bidding process. If my bid fails I would prefer to wait 72 hours and submit again, if that subsequent bid fails then I guess I will have to downgrade to a 3*

ok....sorry about the confusion: :) MTE:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4*,5* MTS:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4* MTW:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4* UM/CPS: 1*,2*,3*,4* DT:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4* UES:2*,3* UWS:1*,2*,2.5*

OK.....here goes! ME:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4*,5* MS:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4* MW:1*,2*,2.5*,3*,4* So if i have 2 re-bid zones does that indiacte I have to choose a prefered zone, if so I would opt for MS, and the re-bid zones as ME & MW hope this is correct

I've decided not to go for the UM/CPS at the moment. Tell me if i have this right: as part of the rebidding process could i not add UM/CPS as an additional zone if unsucessful at the inital bids in my prefered area? thx

I dont really think I would want to split my bid, as this is my first trip to the states and would prefer continuity. If I were to choose UM/CPS what sort of distance would I have to travel to the likes of Macy's as i can guarantee I will be draged there by the wife!! :) any advice appreciated
