I just won the Grand Hyatt for $85 per night in early May. Here's my bids: 3* $60 Convention Ctr/Capitol Hill - Declined 3* $70 Convention Ctr + White House - Declined Then changed my dates to May 9-12 and tried 3* $72 Convention Ctr - Declined 3* $75 Convention Ctr + White House - Declined Went back to first choice of dates May 8-11 4* $80 Dupont Circle/Woodley Park - Declined and finally won with this: 3* $85 Dupont Circle/Convention Ctr/White House I am so excited that I got a 4* in my first location choice! And $85 seems like a real deal. I went to the Grand Hyatt website and rooms for my dates are posted at over $300!
