davdaven Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 I was hoping to win a hotel in Coral Gables, but Coconut Grove is good too. I stayed at the Mayfair 2 years ago and didn't like it, so I steered clear of the 4* category this time.Bidding summary: Tried bids in this zone and Dadeland for 2.5* and 3* hotels for $60, $65, and $70 yesterday and failed. Bid $75 today and was given a counter-offer for $91. The Express Deal for what appeared to be the same hotel was $87. I added Dadeland, increased my bid to $79, and won the Residence Inn By Marriott Coconut Grove. Total is $97.47 with taxes and fees.The Marriott website lists a studio room for $149 advance purchase, $169 regular price, and $135 AAA. Wi-Fi and breakfast are free, but parking costs $15/night. The nearby municipal garage is much less expensive. Link to comment
