Priceline Hotel: 2* Albany (Airport ALB) Best Western

[dhammer53]

Started bidding at $55 for Oct 8, Saturday night.

This weekend is homecoming at SUNY Albany.

3* was reject at $55 for downtown.

Used my free re-bids at $2 per re-bid to finally get the Best Western on Wolf Road for $62.

Cont breakfast is included. :)

I did not/will not include the Sch'y area in any bidding.

Last week I stayed at the Marriott on Wolf Road for $50. I've read reports that hotels have higher pricing for homecoming weekend.

I suggest anyone headed to any homecoming start bidding now; before everyone else does.

It would make sense that homecoming would require higher rates... it always comes down to supply and demand.

Was your previously rejected bid $60? Your post indicates that this is a 2* property, but your bidding indicates that you bid 3*... when did you downgrade your quality or is the title incorrect?

Thanks, and enjoy your stay.

I started bidding 3*.

Re-bid 3* and changed zones.

Last bid was 2*.

Next time I'll keep track of re-bid zones / stars / and prices. :)
