Priceline Hotel: 3* Portland (Portland-West) Clarion

[csaeroach]

Had a hard time getting a bid accepted for Oct 10th, 2010 in Portland, ME.

I tried Scarborough area first, and bid was rejected. Added Portland West, was rejected.

Bid now for three days, with not much luck. I usually get something on the first or second try.

My first bid was $54, then $58, then $60, and then $62.00

Finally accepted at $62.00 - 3* Portland (Portland-West) Clarion

Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $62.00 (USD)

Number of Rooms: 1

Number of Nights: 1

Room Subtotal: $62.00 (USD)

Taxes and Fees: $12.60 (USD)

Total Room Cost: $74.60 (USD)

I am still trying to bid on Oct 1, 2010 as we need a hotel before our flight to Fort Lauderdale as well, but same story having no luck, and still have not received an "accepted" hotel yet ... will keep trying.
