lee1 Posted June 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I went up to $50 for a 3* and was rejected. We are going to consider some alternatives to staying in Syracuse on 7/10. It is intended as a layover on our late day journey to Montreal - I may make a stab at something else on the I 90/ I 81 routing. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 16, 2005 Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 I do believe the extra $5 has a very good chance of making the difference between success and failure, but if you don't want to bid that high it's your perogative.

lee1 Posted June 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2005 Hi,I did go through Savings Barn used a rebid and went to $55 but unfortunately no luck. Thanks though. Link to comment
lee1 Posted June 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 I just tried $48 and $50 on a 2.5* through Savings Barn - unfortunatley still no luck. Link to comment
lee1 Posted July 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Following the failure of getting a 3* for $55 and $ going up to $50 for the 2.5* my wife used her account and instead of getting a 3* or 2.5* she took the 2* Doubletree for $43. We have stayed there once before - nothing fancy. I would not recommend it as more than a stop off. Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Is this actually a Doubletree Club in the Syracuse North zone?Do you know if this was her first bid at the 2* level?Thanks.

lee1 Posted July 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Yes, it is the Doubletree Club. I believe it was based on her first 2* bid for the region. Link to comment
