I have bid $50 and $55 for staying in a 4 star hotel in the Fremont area, I believe that the Golden Nugget is the only 4 star hotel in the area and is the only hotel I want to stay at. I am looking for help in getting the best deal possible. Do rates typically go down as time winds down or is there usually a sweet spot where you can get the best deal a couple weeks out? I have no problem booking even the day I arrive if that is typically the best way to do it. The best rate I have found is actually on the Golden Nugget web site averaging at about $109 a night, Expedia is $132 - what is a good range to expect to pay via PRICELINE?
