Thanks, Better Bidding!

I felt like I was doing this blind because I didn't see many hotels listed in my zone on this website, but I used the bidding strategies I learned here and got a great deal.

For what it's worth, I believe this hotel was the same one I saw this morning on Hotwire for $67 ($80 total.) It was going to be my backup if Priceline didn't work, so I'm happy to say I got the #1 hotel in Dover (according to TripAdvisor) for even less than the price I was willing to pay for it.
