krlbrgmnn Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hyatt Place- Roanoke International Airport Roanoke North - Airport 5040 Valley View Boulevard, Roanoke, VA 24012 Room Subtotal: $47.00 Taxes & Fees: $13.04 Total Charged to Card: $60.04 *Prices are in US dollars. Comps for this night: HW @ $56; hotel's own website @ $87 (the "20% Off Daily" rate; same price for all room types)Bid history: Noting beforehand all the 3* winning bids in Roanoke for the last two years, reading recent successful bid histories, crossing this against HW's 3* prices for this city on this night, and observing that Roanoke still has only 4 zones and only two of those have up to 3* level, I then bid as follows -bid #1: 3*, $44, North-Airportbid #2: $45, +Tanglewoodbid #3: $46, +Salem (free rebid)bid #4: $47, +Troutville (free rebid)If I'm not mistaken, this is a new record low price for this hotel. My guesstimation prior to bidding was that BB members had not attempted the odd price, sticking w/ even increments of $46 and jumping to $48, so I might wind up @ $47 and shave a buck if I lucked out and ran through all four zones. Thus, this 3* price appears to be the bottom for this hotel and possibly this area/city. Had I failed today, I would've waited the PL-required 24 hours and returned to PL tomorrow to "ladder up" again from probably a price of $47 or $48.I began my purchase/bidding process using BB's PRICELINE link. Please do the same for yours. Link to comment
