Tysh Posted November 15, 2013 Report Posted November 15, 2013 Hello BetterBidding, I am completely new to this bidding options of booking hotels and i am trying to book a trip to NYC from Nov 29- Dec 1 , I would like to stay under $200 a night. Help please!
thereuare Posted November 15, 2013 Report Posted November 15, 2013 Welcome to BetterBidding!Are you willing to pay more for a 4* vs. a 3.5* or is the goal the least expensive 3.5* or better for this stay? (ie- did you first want to bid up to $200 for a 4* hotel, then if rejected try for a 3.5* hotel... or try for the least expensive hotel that is 3.5* or better rated)Which zone(s) are you willing to accept?Let us know the information above and we'll advise accordingly.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Tysh Posted November 16, 2013 Author Report Posted November 16, 2013 Im looking to start with the 4* or even 4.5* in the Midtown west or east. & then try for the 3.5*
thereuare Posted November 16, 2013 Report Posted November 16, 2013 I don't think you have a chance at a 4.5* in MTE or MTW at $200 or less, but you should be able to win a 4* within this budget.When bidding 4* in NYC you have TWO re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* MTE...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $160, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $165, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 4* MTW...Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $160, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $165, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 4* MTE and MTW...Bid $170, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $175, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $180Any questions feel free to ask (especially regarding re-bidding and confirming your re-bid zones)If the above is rejected post back and we'll advise further.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck!
