Thanks for the welcome. Yes, I see that CH has no 4* hotels - as is the same for CCA, FW, SSF, and SF Airport (yes, total = 5...:). I believe I understand the rebidding process as described in your great FAQs. I just have never been to SF so don't know what to expect. This is 100% leisure and I will be solo, so walking location in the middle of it all is important. Most important aspect for me is luxury. Question? if one always starts at the low end of the price offer and moves up from there, how does one ever get past the "low end 4* hotels" and get an opportunity to get a confirmation at a upper end 4*? For example, I would imagine that you would most certainly get a hit at some marginal hotels like the DT Marriott or Renaissance Parc 55 well before you get to a price that has any chance of getting you a Ritz or W? Any stategies? Max bid $145. Thanks!
