After trying and failing we decided to re-organise the trip and we got a :- 2.5* at Santa Cruz Inn at Pasatiempo on 21st for $110 4* Claremont Hotel in Berkley on 22nd for $120 3* Holiday Inn Fishermans Warf on 23rd for $160 We are happy and all the hotels look nice :) Thank you for all your help

Yes ok why not :)

Flight in to Jfk arriving at 4:30pm on 24th, Depart from JFK 6pm on the 28th

I am willing to drop to a 3* or 3.5* . Districts I would like are FW, FD/E, USE and possibly USW. Its an idea to split days but not sure how feesable that is for our plans but thanks for the suggestion :-)

$250 is prob my max. Do you think i should i downgrade to 3* in order to stay within budget?

I am greatfull for the advice you have given and am taking everything on board to get the best deal for my holiday.

Ahh right, there is not much I can do about the 22nd as we are travelling up the coast and flying on to NYC on the 24th. The 21st was ok to drop as we intended to get to the city late so we will now stay outside. Ideally my max is $180. Do you think this is possible? I see that the Marriot at the Warf has availability as does the Best western tuscan inn.

I know in a bid to reduce costs we have decided to stay out of the City on the 21 so only require 2 nights now the 22 and 23 of September. Any suggestions of bidding prices for these two nights? Thanks again

Hi, What are the 3* Priceline Hotels in Fisherman's Warf? from the list I have found the following 3* Best Western Tuscan Inn 3* Holiday Inn Are there anymore? Thank you

Ahhhh makes sense now lol. Was that $215 bid before or including taxes?

I bid up to $200 on 4* & 3.5* in all districts other than Brooklyn, Chelsea, Downtown, Upper East + West and got rejected :) Any tips?

I Bid up to $130 on a 3.5* in FW and got nothing, Bid up to $130 on FD/E and on USE and got nothing. I did decide to change stratergy and just search for 2 nights in the city - 22+23 but made no difference :)

Thank you for your advice I really appreciate it and will do that i.e motor in as a backup. Ill get looking at the sites u mentioned as referance of where to bid. I am aware of the rebid thank you - requires a pen and paper to work out all various combination but a good way of getting extra rebids :) The whole tenderloin thing I got from trip advisor reviews which said dont venture the wrong way or ull be in the middle of the tenderloin which scared my girlfried. Im stayin clear of the civic centre as I read that can be a bit dodgy neighbourhood.

Where do you go to check availability? No not tried US but going to add USE if that is a safe / good area? We are driving a rental car and leaving it in the city. When we leave it depends where we manage to find a hotel. I will look into the hotel u mentioned but might keep bidding first.

Thank you, the Distrikt looks nice and review goods so like you said a good option. I have had a look and districts I am interested in are :- TS MTE, MTW, ES. CPS The midtown west sounds a good spot? Thank you

Our aim is a minimum of 3.5*. Ideally we woul prefer FW, however that looks difficult so looking at FD and USE. One question on USE why is the suggested price for a 4* there about half that of USW am I making a mistake and us it an unsafe/undesirable area to stay?

Thank you for the info, I will keep bidding for now incase something crops up in the city itself ;-)

You are lucky to getting a free night lol :-) I hope not to have to go more than $135 for a 3.5* or 4*. Not sure if this is possible. If not i may have to stay by the airport and travel in :-( Is FD/E a nice area? Thanks

Thank you, I am looking at districts close to times square, central park, and 5th av if possible. Budget wise prob max of $250 if possible?

I did have a look but after hearing that someone got the Augonaut for $115 i thought I would have a chance around that price. If the FW area is not possible can you suggest other areas? This is our first visit and have read awfull reviews about places close to the tenderloin etc - which is the main reason we started bidding on FW. Thank you for your comments and advice
