mgtravel Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Looking to stay in the Crystal City area from 9-21 to 9-28.Have bid for the past few days with no winning bid. Starting bid was $85 now up to $100 with no win.Looking in history of recent post have seen some winning bids in the $80 range.How much should I expect to pay for this area? Thinking I might have to pay higher amount for a week stay?Thanks for your help. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)This is a particularly busy set of dates in DC, and the week-long stay may also be problematic. What would be your desired budget per night? Are you seeing any listings of interest on HOTWIRE?Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches. Link to comment
mgtravel Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I didn't realize this was high season. Maybe I should try breaking up my bid for one week into multiple bids for shorter stays.I will give HOTWIRE a try. I was hoping to get a room for around $100 but it may be difficult during this time.Thanks for your help! Link to comment

mgtravel Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 Yes, any ideas on splitting my bid would be helpful.Thanks Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 The weekend dates are cheaper then the midweek, but as this stay is Tuesday to Tuesday, this isn't going to help yo too much unless you want to change hotels twice (3 different properties) and you're still faced with the much higher priced midweek legs of the trip.What is the best rate you're able to find at an acceptable hotel thru conventional booking channels? Could you increae your budget at all? Are there any other nearby zones which might be acceptable for your needs this trip?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
