Used the PRICELINE link to book from this site. Started at $78 and increased at $5 intervals by adding rebid zones. $83... $88... $93... $98... $103 Accepted! The Westgate Hotel Downtown San Diego & Harbor Island 1055 Second Avenue San Diego, CA 92101 Offer Price - $103 Subtotal - $206 Taxes & Fees - $35.64 Total Charges - $241.64 Total Per Night - $120.82 Hotel Website Pice = $285 Can't complain too much I suppose. A little sad that I didn't get the $78 or $82 rates that other users where reporting but still happy! Thanks Again Better Bidding! :)

Not my best bidding effort but tried just about everything. Started at 3* $80 $85 $90 $95 $100 Added 2.5* $80 $105 $110 $115 $120 $130 when I added Atascadero Zone and was accepted by Holiday Inn Express Atascadero. They are asking $162 on the Holiday Inn Website. A bit disappointed but I used the PRICELINE link from here at least! :) Thanks again Betterbidding.

Used the PRICELINE link above and got this deal on the first bid. Whenever that happens I always feel like I am leaving money on the table a bit. But I guess I can't feel too bad. The same hotel on Expedia was $219. Thanks again Betterbidding! :)

Bid only once because I checked this forum first!!! Betterbidding is bomb! 4* in Downtown-Harbor Island Area .... $61 February 20, 2011 to February 21, 2011 I also wanted to mention that I used the PRICELINE link from this website! Thanks guys!

Was trying to get something downtown also. Tried a bunch of zone additions for downtown from $65 to $95 with none accepted so I added San Diego Coastal and went down to 4* and was accepted on first try. Used the PRICELINE link from Betterbidding! :)

Hello all! Just wanted to report... Used the PRICELINE link on Betterbidding.com and had been working on this for a couple of weeks. Tried the Following bids on different days. $25, $26, $28, $31, $34, $35, $36, $37 Bid Was finally accepted at $37 :) Here's the Details... Hertz Rental Car Company Your Offer Price: $37.00 (per day) Total Rental Days: 3 days Subtotal: $111.00 Taxes and Fees: $38.83 Total Charges: $149.83 Lowest Published Price: $293.75 Total Savings:* $143.92 (You saved 49%)

Tried Bidding $50 first in Zone 9 Added re-bid zone and bid $86 and was accepted. I used the PRICELINE link above as well. $86 for the Red Lion Hotel on Fifth in Downtown Pike Place area of Seattle it is a 3* Hotel. I checked the Red Lion website out of curiosity for those same dates and the cheapest room was $136. So I am pretty happy with this bid. Thanks again betterbidding.com!

I think the secret to this is trying IMMEDIATELY after midnight. I had been trying either in the midmorning or evening for several days going from $85 and 4* adding $5 with each extra zone to $105 and failing everytime. tried again today at about 1am in the morning... tried 4* at $85 and they offered me to increase my bid $22 and i would be able to make the exact same star rating and zone. but i refused it and went to $90 and added USW. got rejected... so i tried $95 and added fisherman's wharf. ACCEPTED! chaching! pretty happy with this one. going to always bid at 1am in the morning from now on.

i'm getting $149 for those dates... 5/23 to 5/26. but i may just go with that. doesn't seem too far away from where i need to be. thanks for that suggestion.

I'd rather not split my bid and yes i am trying basically all of the midtown and downtown locations. adding them all as rebid zones while bidding up to my maximum of $160

tried again today with no luck up to $160. included all locations in lower manhattan starting at $140. 4 stars.

So I tried again using the PRICELINE Link to help support the site and tried some of the bids that people who posted here tried... i tried $125 in MTE and got rejected so i tried $144 and added a rebid zone, and got rejected (recently someone got the Grand Hyatt at this price) then i tried $151 and added a rebid zone, and got rejected (recently someone got this price for my exact dates at the grand hyatt!) so then i tried $155 and i got this message...

bump bump... going to try again today.

i think i ended up booking the tuscany for this stay, it was $150 from their website. it was 2 years ago tho.

Tried again today. for dates 5/23 to 5/26. Bid up to $160 and am still getting rejected. Included all of downtown-soho, MTE, MTW, MTS, Times Square, and Upper Midtown Central Park South. No success

I would definitely like to stay below $200 for this stay. and yes, i did try all the regions that you listed. I will continue trying today.

I have so far tried all the mid town locations in the 4 star range up to $150 and have received no counter offers or acceptances. I would very much like to receive the W at $145 like someone got not too long ago. any suggestions?
