I've used BetterBidding twice to get awesome PRICELINE deals in Coral Gables and in D.C., where I was familiar with the neighborhoods I wanted...but now that I'm searching for Rome, I'm not sure where to start. I think this is the first time I've posted a question, so I read several of the read before you post posts...here goes. My trip is to Rome, Florence and Venice from November 21-29. I'd like start by booking the first four nights in Rome. Ideally a 4* in the Travestere neighborhood. I realize I can't pick that particular neighborhood, but can someone tell me if Travestere is in "central" and if so, is there is a star rating I could pick in order to have a good chance of getting a hotel in Travestere? That's a lot to ask, but I thought I'd see if someone here is really familiar with the Rome offerings and zones. Just going by what I saw when searching 4* central Rome hotel wins here, I'd say that I'd be happy with a max $125 or max $85 for a central 3*. I don't even know if that's reasonable, so any guidance would be appreciated! Random question unrelated to Rome: What is it when people on the board are trying to identify hotels? Is that a HOTWIRE thing? I'm new to this, and so far I've only used PRICELINE. Thanks!
