Noela Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 Hi,I need to book a hotel for a night - 7/16 - 7/17 (saturday-sunday). I willing to pay a max of about $50, so probably a 2* or 3* should suffice.What bidding strategies would you recommend?In appreciation - Noela Link to comment

Noela Posted July 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 actually, i would prefer Hull, but could do with any other place within Ottawa itself. i tried Hull, 3* 45, rejected, lowered it to 2.5* 48 rejected. and stopped.I could add more zones, but decided to wait for further guidance.cheers, Noela Link to comment

thereuare Posted July 15, 2005 Report Share Posted July 15, 2005 Glad you got this settled!Can you please clarify/confirm a few things...-your first 2 bids were in the Hull zone-the Residence Inn you win is in the Ottawa zone-is the Residence Inn rated 2* or 2.5*... previously (and recently) listed at 2.5*, the correct star rating should show on your winning bid confirmation screen (you may have been upgraded if you bid the 2* level)Thanks!
