Priceline Hotel: Request Bidding Help for San Fran

[reb2r]

Request bidding help for San Fran, prefer to stay in USE, 3 star or above, check in 21 Oct 05, check out 24 Oct 05. Need to stay near Union Square due to the marathon. Is there any advantage (or disadvantage) to trying to get 2 vs. 1 room at a time?

Thanks

Welcome to BetterBidding!

What is your maximum bid? Are you also able/willing to bid USW... or is USE the only zone you wish to stay in?

What is more important, star rating or price (ie- would you pay more for a 4* hotel vs. lowering your star rating to 3*)

Let us know and we'll be able to suggest a strategy to meet you goals.

Thanks-

in reply-

I would stay in USW (would rather USE)

max bid probably $80/night (3 star)

would pay slightly more for 4 star (95$?)

Thanks for the help

As a reminder

Dates 21-24 Oct 04

What is more important, star rating or price (ie- would you pay more for a 4* hotel vs. lowering your star rating to 3*)

In addition to the above question, what is more important, price or zone? (would you rather pay more for a 4* hotel in USE vs. less for a 4* hotel in USW?)

[reb2r]

for my request-

USE is most important

Price is second

3 or 4 star is third.

Rates are high so i'm not overly optimistic, but this is what i would try within your bidding limit:

Select 4* USE...

Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $95, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.

Select 3* USE...

Bid $60, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $65, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.

Select 4* USW...

Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone....

Bid $95, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.

Select 3* USW...

Bid $60, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $65, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.

Do keep in mind that on your 3* bids you could be 'upgraded' to a Boutique class property.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good Luck.
