Priceline Hotel: 4* MTW and CPS (Try 3*?) 9-12 to 9-14

[HanMiles]

I've tried bidding for a 4* in Midtown West and Central Park South up to $205 for Sept 12th 2010 - Sept 14th 2010 with no success. I really don't want to go much higher, but I would be willing to add Times Square, Midtown East, and Upper West Side. However, I doubt that would do any good.

Should I consider dropping to 3.5 or 3 stars? I'm nervous about the quality, but if I can get it for around $150 I might be happy.

My wife and I are only there 2 nights, and don't care too much about the hotel, just want something clean and relatively quiet.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

While i agree that a 4* win at $200 or under will likely be a stretch for these dates i would at least try adding the other zones before lowering your star rating. Besides UWS, MTE and UWS... is ESB also acceptable to try?

Let us know and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

I have bid up to $165 for 3* 9/12 and 9/13 in MTW, CPS, and TS. No success.

I bid up to $185 for 3.5* for same dates and areas. No success.

I'm starting to get discouraged.
