Welcome to BetterBidding!

The 'problem' with Cambridge is that both the Cambridge zones (east and west) are geographically large and outside of 'core' Downtown access to transit becomes a bit more sparse and spread out, so there is no assurance that you'll be within walking distance if you stay out in Cambridge.

A 4* hotel for ~$210/nite (~$750 all-in) is possible, but more likely is a bit of a stretch at current prices (your $625 all-in budget is probably close for a 3.5* property).

Did you want to try for a 4* hotel first? If so, should we exclude Cambridge? What about Bostom Common, is this zone acceptable as it is generally considered centrally located and convenient.

Please confirm which zone(s) you'd like to include on your first round of (4 star?) bidding, as well as your maximum bid, and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.
