Finally got it: Bid $75 for Pike St & Seattle Center Bid $80 added Bothell Bid $85 added Lynnwood Bid $90 added Seatac Bid $95 added Mulikteo Bid $100 added North Everatt and got the Westin Not as low as some other rates I saw on the board but still very happy with rate/location. Thanks for all of your help, I will tell all my friends about your site. Sue

Yes, that does help in regard to re-bidding and figuring out the zones. Can you provide any specific advise regarding my stay I am looking to book? Rates, etc.

Sorry, I thought I understood the re-bidding but I think there is more to it that I do not grasp yet. If you could break it down further that would be great. Also, I noticed on another post that you can locate somewhere the hotels in the different zones to ensure you know what star rates are in each zone. Where do I find this info (might be already included in your further info above). Thanks!

I bid up to $85, added a zone and went down to 3 1/2 stars. I hope I am following your question ok. So I am looking for some advice before I re-bid (I think that is what you meant by posting to the board beforehand). For my maximum bid I am willing to go up to $100 but do not understand why others have gotten a much lower rate.

I am a newbie to this sight and noticed all of the successful posts for the Westin & other comparables in Seattle for as low as $68. We will be in Seattle for an event at Safeco field on 9/26 and would like to stay as close as possible. I have submitted multiple bids ranging from $70 to $85 for Pike Place and Seattle (I believe space needle) and all have been rejected. Also added 3.5 stars to my search with no success. Any help/advice would be most welcome.
