Started bidding at $70, which was rejected. Using two of the many "free bid" areas available in the Baltimore area, I increased my offer, and was successful at $76. A good deal!
Started bidding at $68. I was able to utilize many "free" bid zones, and finally scored a win at $82. A considerable saving over hotel's published rates.
I initially tried bidding on this hotel via PRICELINE. Bids of 86 to 90 were all rejected. I finally relented and paid the "full" price on HOTWIRE. We are not gamblers, and will enjoy a smoke-free environment.
My initial bid was $65. I utilized the several re-bid zones that were available - increasing my bid $5 for each zone. Day one bidding was unsuccessful. I started day 2 bidding at $95 and landed the Sheraton for $100. I'm delighted. The cheapest room available for this hotel on Expedia is $245!
$46 bid accepted at the 3 star Jacksonville Radisson Hotel at Butler Blvd for 1 night - November 7th. Hotel has very good reviews. I'm satisfied. willbrook
I successfully booked the *3 star aforementioned hotel for the nights of 6/1 thru 6/3 for $46 dollars on PRICELINE. Thanks to this website, I had a good idea of how much to bid, and was successful on my first effort. Thanks for the help.
