Welcome to BetterBidding!

Your bid amounts don't seem realistic in my opinion.

Is that your maximum bid or what are you basing your bid amounts on?

I don't want to bid any higher than 50/night for 3*hotel.

3* downtown have been running in the $55 to $65 range for most of the summer.

Even Hotwire's 3* and 3 1/2* hotels in Downtown Toronto for that weekend are showing in the $79 to $89 US range, and the best PL will do is usually about $20 less than Hotwire.

If you don't have to be Downtown - the 3* Crowne Plaza in the Don Valley zone often comes up in your Price Range and is a very nice hotel. It's about a 15 minute drive to downtown from Eglinton and the DVP on the weekends.

So the choice is yours price or location - you won't get both on a Summer weekend in Toronto.... hope it helps.

Did you get this thru Priceline?

If so, what was your bidding history or was this your first bid in the zone?

Enjoy your stay.
