I was going up in increments of $10 so the acceptable bid is $106-115 for these dates. 4* hotels downtown were higher than $130, not surprising, but significantly higher than the winning bids of $71-114 for August and July. Used the PRICELINE link.

3* Seatac $46 5/17 - 5/20 Hilton Seattle Airport And Conference Center. $43 was too low today. Used PRICELINE link.

Oops, just found a couple of $99 rooms at that hotel. Still, a great deal.

After taxes and fees: $63.88 They accepted my first bid. Looks like they've dropped the price since Hellotoyou's Jan 9th bid which was as high as $65. Used the PRICELINE link. Sheraton website's lowest available rate for that date, even with AAA or gov't discount, is $152. Hopefully gov't is using BB and Priceline, too. Great deal! Thanks, Better Bidding.

I need to start testing lower bids! Used the BB PRICELINE link to make the reservation. Thanks!

(Bids for March 10 for 3.5* hotel were not accepted up thru $61.) Used the BB PRICELINE link to make the reservation. Thanks!

$135 accepted as first PRICELINE bid. Probably should have tested $116, but I'm happy.
