Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Boston (Copley Square-Theater District)

[cheapsk8]

First bid: 3.5*, Copley Square - Theatre District, $109

Second bid: added Fenway (zone #6), $114

Third bid: added Brighton - Brookline (zone #3), $119

Fourth bid: added South Boston (zone #11), $124

Fifth bid: added Medford - Somerville (zone #7), $129

Sixth bid: added North Cambridge - Arlington (zone #8), $134

I didn't get anything this go-around . . .will try again when I have time. As a back-up, I booked the Cambridge Marriott at a corporate rate of $199/night.

This is a tough area to book, and I have only seen a few successful BB'ers book for similar time periods.

OK, I'm back at it . . .

First bid: 3.5*, Copley, $144

Second bid: add Fenway Park (zone #6), $149

Third bid: add Medford - Somerville (zone #7), $154

Fourth bid: add Brighton - Brookline (zone #3), $159

Fifth bid: add South Boston (zone #11), $164

Sixth bid: North Cambridge - Arlington (zone #8), $169

No luck . . .I'm already staying at the Cambridge Marriott on shoulder dates to my bid attempts. At this point, I don think it's worth a train/cab ride across town just to save $50. I hope BB'ers benefit from my bidding experience. (I sure didn't!)
