tpuppie Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 Heading to Baltimore for soccer game at M and T Stadium last weekend of July.Bid $75-$115 on various "near downtown" areas from 3*-4*. No dice.Am kicking myself for not taking care of this earlier. I'm sure the hotels are full of soccer fans. Advice? I don't know the city at all. Maybe I should just book somewhere near the airport since that's not terribly far away and at least there are some rooms available? Or stick with bidding and bid higher? I need to act fast because I leave the country this week. Why did I procrastinate? Ugh. Link to comment

Is showing $114 for 7/27/2012-7/29-2012. The hotel list on this page only shows one hotel under "Baltimore East": the Best Western Plus. Could this be it?Thanks! Link to comment

thereuare Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 The Best Western Plus Hotel And Conference Center would seem like a good fit and that would be my best guess for this one.How close does this get you to where you want to be for this trip? If you opt for the airport and there are rooms available there thru conventional booking channels, why not bid for a room in that zone? (rather than pay retail?)Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

I think they have a free shuttle service to the Inner Harbor, so that addresses some of my concerns about how to get around town once I am there. Link to comment
