Raytech Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 For 5/26 - 5/30, in Jersey City area, Bid $50 for 2* (Candlewood Suites) and got rejected.Changed dates to 5/26 - 5/28,and bid all the way up to $75 for the same hotel and kept getting rejected.Again, changed the dates to 5/26 - 5/29, and bid $81 for the same hotel and FINALLY got accepted by Candlewood Suites.To stay even further (5/29 - 5/31), I bid $81 for a 3* (Hyatt or Double Tree) in the same area, and got accepted by the Doubletree Club Jersey City.I guess I'll enjoy the free parking for the first three days and then move to an upscale hotel, see what difference a star makes. Hope my wife will be satisfied. :) Oh, here's the details:A. the 2* hotelCandlewood Suites Jersey City Exchange Place Jersey City (Price Line's area category)21 Second Street Jersey City, New Jersey 07302 201-659-2500Check-In Date: Thu, May 26, 2005 Check-In Time: After 03:00 PM Check-Out Date: Sun, May 29, 2005 Check-Out Time: 12:00 PM Your Offer Price: $81.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 3 Subtotal: $243.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $44.54 Total Charges: $287.54 B. the 3* hotelDoubletree Club Jersey City Jersey City (Price Line's area category)455 Washington Boulevard Jersey City, New Jersey 07310 201-499-2400Check-In Date: Sun, May 29, 2005 Check-In Time: After 03:00 PM Check-Out Date: Tue, May 31, 2005 Check-Out Time: 12:00 PM Your Offer Price: $81.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 2 Subtotal: $162.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $31.93 Total Charges: $193.93- Raytech from Indiana Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!Thank you for sharing your win(s) with the rest of the board.I suspect your wife will be fine with both hotels, but may actual like the Candlewood Suites even better!I live nearby so if you want to come to Hoboken and want and recommendations for places to eat and such feel free to ask.I've edited the title of this thread to reflect your Candlewood Suites win... please copy/paste the information from your Doubletree win to a NEW TOPIC so that we can keep the same format (of one hotel win per thread) and others who just want to scan the topic titles will be able to see the data from both wins.Thanks, and enjoy your stay.
