AndrewC Posted April 30, 2011 Report Posted April 30, 2011 AndrewC ( 88366 ) - 209.155.227.195 --- PM1 --- USED1 --- 4/30/2011 2:16 PM - (forum) - (last post)Travelling up to Pittsburgh to see the Phillies play on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon. Booked this back in February for $75 for Sat night after trying $60, $65, and $70 through this PRICELINE link.My parents decided to join us, so today I looked up the rates on Hotels.com to gauge what I should bid and saw 1 room left at the Wyndham Grand at $299 for the same night! Moral of the story is booking early for Sat night worked heavily in our favor in this case.I tried 4* and 3.5* Downtown for them at $125, $150, and $160 and got rejected for all those before giving up and just booking them out by the airport. Tried 3.5* (Airport) for *65 got denied, added 3* rating for (Airport) and bid $55 and got the Courtyard Pittsburgh Airport for $55 + ~$15 Taxes in fees = $70 total. Also, used this PRICELINE link to book this one.Thanks BetterBidders!
