thereuare Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 ...and areas close by with easy access to public transportationIs the possibility of a 15 minute walk to the subway acceptable or should zones where this is possible be excluded from your bidding? What about zones with 'known' hotels that are very small (~140 sq. ft)... would this be acceptable?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

jt9000 Posted May 24, 2012 Author Report Posted May 24, 2012 Zones with known hotels that are very small is acceptable, provided they are clean and not in run-down areas :DI'd prefer not to have to walk 15min. to subway stations.
thereuare Posted May 24, 2012 Report Posted May 24, 2012 All of these zones are generally considered 'well located':CPS, Chelsea (may be 10 minute walk to nearest subway but it's a desirable area), ESB, MSG, MTW, TSAssuming these are all acceptable...At the 3.5* level in NYC you have SIX re-bid zones.
