Priceline Hotel: Austin, TX Rejected BIds

[BananaFusion]

Was planning to do a surprise weekend getaway for my fiance when she got back from a trip, but couldn't find any 4* or 3.5* in downtown Austin below $115 for that weekend. Hotwire reports lowest for that weekend is $178, while the two surrounding weekends are only $89. Likewise going to the hotel websites directly show rates doubled compared to other weekends. Looks like Bat Fest and a World of Warcraft conference sucked up all the hotel rooms downtown.

Bids (all rejected):

4* Downtown

$70

$83

$90

$100

3.5* Downtown

$70
