First Post

Hoping for the Renaissance again - Great Hotel or maybe try the Marriott with free parking but got the Hilton (never stayed there) $21 Self parking but still for a last minute trip - OK deal.

Denied at $52.00 added Seekonk free bid. $60.00 accepted

Are you aware that the Renaissance is 4* while Hilton and Marriott Downtown are both 3.5*? With 3 re-bid zones available, trying for 4* allows a total 8 bids using the full re-bidding strategy explained here here and here.

Thanks - I did try a few rebids but the price was more important than getting the Renaissance. Parking and Internet really ate into the deal (Parking $21.95 (self) $25.00 (valet) and Internet $9.95 (24 Hours) but it was still a nice visit. I can't say that Hilton should be a 3.5 when compared to other Hilton properties. The rooms were small and the pool was really basic.
