Thanks thereuare for the tips. However, I tried your suggestion and didn't get anywhere. :) I will probably have to lower my standards or go somewhere else besides Del Mar and Coastal.

Oops sorry, The dates are June 25-June 28/05. Staying three nights.

Thanks Travelguy and Thereuare for your guidance. We would like to stay in the Coastal area and Del Mar. I think our max would be $70. Do you think this is possible? I initially tried tried Coastal and Del Mar with 4* for $50 and then tried 3* for $50. I guess I have to up the bid. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Yellowbeetle

Thank you Kathy and Thereuare for your help. I never actually thought what my maximum would be for the hotel. But if it is $130+, I have to pass, either I will have to lower the hotel rating or go somewhere else. If anyone knows of a good area within San Diego that isn't too seedy or not too shabby, please let me know. I just thought the coastal area would be nice. I still have to do some research of ideal areas to stay. We will be renting a car so transportation wouldn't be a problem, although parking might be. Anyways, hope all is well with everyone who reads my message. Yellowbeetle.

Hi All, I hope I'm posting correctly, this is my first time and am still trying to navigate through the forums. I bid on a hotel for June 26-28, tried $47 for a 4* in San Diego Coastal. I didn't get an alert stating "Based on recent data, your price has only a small chance of being accepted." Doesn't this usually mean that my bid would be accepted. I thought it was ok but it got rejected. Now that it is 72 hours after the first initial bid, what amount should I bid. Is it way too low? There will only be two of us(adults). I have to do other cities in California and want to make sure that I'm doing this properly. What amount should I be bidding? Please help. Your help is much needed and appreciated. Thanks in advance.
