Priceline Hotel: Columbus - Bid Fail

[LWQuestie]

Tried 2.5* at $39 and re-bid at $40. No dice.

May try some other zones in the area. Trying to get a suite-style location like the Hawthorn Suites won twice last year.

As usual, PRICELINE link used for bidding!

Is this for the Downtown zone?

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

No, that would be useful information to add. I'm trying to win at 2.5* in the East zone. I won twice last year at $37 and $38.

And failed again tonight at $43 and $44.

It looks like your mid-week nites may be a little cheaper than your weekend nites... is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option?

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

Thanks for your help. I ended up bidding through the regular (not NYOP) Priceline side - $54/night. It came to a total of $219. Saved a bunch booking through PRICELINE - hotel website total was $270. Not as good as last year, but what can you do?

Glad you found something that works for your needs.

Thanks for closing this thread with your decision.
