namssa Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 Looking for Hotel in Downtown Seattle for 9/1 - 9/3.Started out with 4 star hotel in Seattle Downtown - Pike Place and started at $80 and went to $176 with no luck.Added Seattle Center - Space Needle and again started at $80 and went to $176 with no luck.Lowered start to 3 1/2 star hotels and started at $70 and went up to $136 with no luck.It looks like the 9/1 Saturday check-in is a problem. So I booked a safety hotel on 9/1 and decided to break up the nights. Started out with 4 star hotel in Seattle Downtown - Pike Place for just the 9/2 night and started at $80 and went to 140 with no luck.Added Seattle Center - Space Needle and again started at $80 and went to $140 with no luck.Lowered star to 3 1/2 star hotels and started at $70 and immediately got an $84 counter offer. I instead increased my bid to $74 and it got accepted and I received the Red Lion Hotel on Fifth Avenue. Great price for $74. Now just need to get my hotel for Saturday night. Going to the SDSU vs. U of Washington football game so I have an emergency room nearby but took a shot at 3 1/2 hotels in Seattle - University of Washington area. Started at $80 and bid to $130 with no luck. Back up hotel (Hotel Deca) is $169 so not much room for savings. Link to comment

namssa Posted July 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 I did but it didn't accept it. Since it is a Saturday night check in it might be difficult. I'll keep looking for my Saturday night stay and keep you informed, but I'm now looking in the U of W area for that night so we shall see. Link to comment
