trvl3 Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Priceline initial access and all re-accesses done thru www. SavingsBarn.comTotal charges $70.44Minimum rate for this night on hotel web site $249.00Using various combinations of free rebid zones, I bid up to $75 for 4* in Dulles area, hoping to get the Marriott Westfields, recently and deservedly upgraded to 4*, again. (I did not bid at 4* for the other area in Northern Va. with a 4* hotel, Fairfax, because I have stayed at that hotel, the Hyatt Fair Lakes, and consider it inferior to several of the Northern Va. 3*'s.) No luck.I then bid up to $67 for a 3* in Dulles, up to $59 for a 3* in Fairfax (yes, I know PL could have substituted the 4* Hyatt Fair Lakes, but at that point and at that price that would have been OK,) and up to $54 for a 3* in Tysons Corner, all unsuccessfully, before getting the 3* Marriott Tysons Corner for $57. At $51 for a Tysons Corner 3*, PL offered a free rebid if I went up to $65, which I did not do and am glad, since I saved $8. Link to comment
