disfan168 Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 I was trying to bid for 4* hotels in Vancouver downtown area and failed at $120 yesterday. Today knowing that I'm probably not going to get a 4* downtown hotel at a reasonable price, I changed my plan trying to get the 4* Hilton Metrotown (with downtown as a free bid zone) instead. I was pleasantly surprised that Marriott Pinnacle showed up at $81! My last failed bid was $78 (with both Burnaby and downtown areas selected).
thereuare Posted June 21, 2005 Report Posted June 21, 2005 Thank you for the report!Did you bid $78 today too or only yesterday?Good thing you were willing to accept the Downtown area since technically not a true re-bid zone. Nice to see a 'pleasant' surprise.Enjoy your stay. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
