Priceline Hotel: fb- 4* San Diego 6/9-6/12 $105

I started at $85 coastal and downtown and began adding free rebids in $5 increments up to $105. Gave up at that point...

Now considering dropping down to 3* :)

Any sugestions?

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Have you seen hotel direct prices for the above dates?

Look at HOTWIRE, Hyatt, and Hilton... you'll see that most of the hotels are sold-out for these dates and the few that are available are much more expensive than usualy.

Have you checked EasyClickTravel and/or Quikbook... both of them hold inventory so you may get lucky thru them, but this is going to be a tough stay are reasonable prices.

Are there any other neaby areas you may be able to consider? If not, what is your maximum bid?

I am willing to stay anywhere that is in a good location. I don't mind driving in, but I do plan on going to sea-world and possibly the zoo. I have found some ok rates elsewhere for 2.5-3* hotels($110). The only problem with that is I don't want to get stuck in a dump or bad neighborhood. I have only used priceline for 4* so luckily that hasn't happened yet.

Any suggestions on safe bets area(s) for 3*

Thanks!

I think you'll need to do a bit of research and/or be more specific with which zone(s) you want to bid... a "good location" means different things to different people.
