poley Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Started at 50 and worked my way up to $70 in $5 increments. I'll retry later. I'm willing to go down to 3* and if still no luck i'm going to try around Pearson airport and just get up extra early to get to Toronto city airport for my flight home Link to comment

poley Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 After losing out on my 4 and 3.5 bids, I tied the PRICELINE link again for 3*. I'm pretty sure my issues is because summer travel season is picking up. I tried $60 and before it would even try my bid i received a "Based on recent data, your price has almost no chance of being accepted." message. I went ahead anyways and was given counter offer of $75, now knowing this is a trick i tried $65 but was still denied. I feel i'm getting close. No rebid zones are left so i will have to try later.BTW Best deal for initial bids switched from Downtown South to Airport West. I see a rate of $80 for 3* for the chose your specific hotel option. so i may just give up on downtown. I need to save money for the Hong Kong portion of my trip Link to comment

poley Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 I just checked the hotels website and the regular prepaid price is 229CAD so this was a steal of a deal at close to 70% off. Free breakfast will come in handy. Link to comment
