Priceline Hotel: 4* Portland (Downtown) The Westin Portland

[hopeland]

Just picked up this win in Portland. Price is a little higher than recent wins, but I guess that we're getting closer to high season in the Pacific NW.

• As always, used BiddingHelper.com to bid and win.
  
• Began bidding Downtown 4* @ $80.
  
• Bid in increments between $1 and $3 up to $104. Have over a dozen rebid zones in PDX, so why not?
  
• At $104, received a counteroffer of $139, which I promptly rejected, having many many rebids left.
  
• Bid up in increments of $2 or $1 to $122.
  
• Bid accepted @ $122 by the Westin.
  

• Lowest retail rate @ the Westin was $182.
  
• Lowest Hotwire rate for a 4* Downtown was $130. The amenity set didn't match any previously reported BetterBidding.com wins as far as I could tell, so I was shooting in the dark on Hotwire. Might as well continue all the way up to $130 on Priceline.
  
• 4* Riverfront zone was available @ $118, but downtown is much more convenient for my needs.
