Triple B Posted December 31, 2010 Report Posted December 31, 2010 This was always going to be a tricky buy, needed Sunday and Monday nights of Presidents Weekend, so effectively splitting the long weekend.Tried 4* in both Copley Square and Quincey Market areas bidding up to $95 using 5 rebid zones available. Dropped down to 3.5* and bid to $80 without success.Next day tried 4* again. Received 'add $25' offers at $90, $97 and again at $100.Dropped down to 3.5* and 'won' the Boston Park Plaza at $99 after bidding up from about $80.Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $99.00 (USD)Number of Rooms: 1Number of Nights: 2Room Subtotal: $198.00 (USD)Taxes and Fees: $38.34 (USD)Total Room Cost: $236.34 (USD)As I said, on face value paid top odds in a Priceline sense, but rack rate is around the $150 mark and the dates were always going to be tough.I'm pretty satisfied.Use Better Bidding PRICELINE links.
