Welcome to BetterBidding!

At the moment rates are very high for these dates and i'm not sure if you'll be successful in these zones at a 3.5* or better, but to begin, did you want to start by bidding up to your limit for a 4* OR is your goal the least expensive 3.5* or better for this stay?

Let us know the above and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

If a lower star hotel is safe and clean enough, I can also accept. I got a win for Westin Colely Squareat 160$/night for last Oct stay in Boston . I think Colely Square is quite good for tourist.

I bid for a 3.5 hotel up to 220$ for colely square just now and failed. Do you think I have no chance to get a room under 300$ since a lot of meeting is scheduled on those dates

Your 'new' $300 limit is still pretty far from the $220 you have already bid, and while these are difficult dates, $300 would be far from a sure thing, but it's still a lot of money for a hotel room so you never know if a hotelier would be willing to accept this amount to lock in a non-refundable purchase. I do think you'd better your chances if you included all of the zones you previously mentioned as being acceptable, and i would also consider SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID if you're willing to stay at two different properties.
