MikeBHR Posted May 23, 2013 Report Posted May 23, 2013 I pulled up Strasburg VA and got a list of 12 towns that also included Woodstock, New Market, Luray, Mount Jackson, Front Royal, Ruckersville (southern of the range), and Martinsburg WV (northern of the range). If your target is a three-star in Front Royal or Martinsburg, this list will give you 10 re-bids to play with. I think I had three re-bids at 2.5 stars. And Mount Jackson only showed a one-star property, giving two-star shoppers a rare free re-bid at that level. Larger cities, such as Winchester and Harrisonburg, were not on this list, but shown as neighboring areas.Started at 2.5 stars at $38. Used the free re-bids to increase to $45, but came up empty, as expected based on what was showing on the regular and express deal lists.Restarted at 2 stars at $35. Counter-offer at $45 (the Express Deals price for this star/town/dates). Used the free re-bid to get this property at $39. Six under the Express Deals price seems to be a magic number for now.Property is getting decent reviews as of late. The main downside of this property is that, according to some reviews, the pool and gym listed in the description as on property may actually be a neighboring recreation facility with free privileges but much shorter hours than motels usually offer (and guests expect) for these amenities when available/listed. This won't affect me on my trip, but it may be worth considering if such things are important to you.
