Renpumpkin Posted September 10, 2011 Report Posted September 10, 2011 I am needing a hotel room in the Lake Union area for 7 nights 09/24/11-10/01/11. Rates seem to be $169-$200 per night. I have a backup hotel reserved at $140 per night with govt discount. Was hoping to do better on priceline. Need to be close to cancer center, so other zones not wanted. Any chance of sucess with 7 nights? Please advise.

Renpumpkin Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Posted September 13, 2011 Thanks for the advice. I received a price alert email from Priceline stating $113 per night was a recent successful bid in the Lake Union zone. I bid again at $113 per night and was counter offered with $130 per night. I used my free rebid and tried $115 per night, and was successful for 7 nights of 09/24/11 through 10/01/11 at The Silver Cloud Inn Lake Union.
