Rhine-and-Roses Posted July 21, 2011 Report Posted July 21, 2011 This was a split bid. I had been trying to get a hotel for under $120 for a special Harvard weekend. I got nothing better than a standard rate, so I finally decided to split the bid and risk two hotels for the 1st-5th of March. Please see separate listing for March 2-5. I started bidding at $120 for March 1st. I was countered with $150. I ignored the counter and added a free rebid zone and $5. It was rejected. I added another free rebid and $130, which was accepted, thankfully by the same hotel I had previously won. So the total for the four nights, including taxes, was about $475 as opposed to about $730 I was going to pay via another hotel's web site. Certainly a great deal when compared with the Marlowe's own web site. I used your PRICELINE link to purchase this room. Thanks again for this great board!
