roplan Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Downtown 3.5 star, indoor pool, business center, fitness center, restaurant, pets allowed...Which one do you think this is?We're looking for June 7, one night, downtown, best price/highest star comboIt's during their art festival, so rooms are scarce.Thanks for your help, and I'll use the PRICELINE link as I have in the past.And, please instruct on how to proceed with bidding for name my own price.Could it be the Wyndham Grand Downtown? Doing a Pittsburgh search with pets allowed and business center only brings up the Wyndham. Link to comment
yellowdog Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Yes, it could be Wyndham. But Sheraton Station Square Hotel could also be a possibility. If you would like to get help with a bidding strategy so please post your budget/night before tax/fees, zone(s) you're willing to stay in and the star rating for the hotel. Thanx for using boards PRICELINE links! Yellowdog. Link to comment
roplan Posted May 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 $120/night, June 7, downtown/university zone, 3.5 or 4 star rating Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 At current rates your budget will likely fall short for a 4* hotel but should be enough for a 3.5* property. If you want to try for a 4* first you can begin with the first bidding section and if rejected then immediately try the second section... if your goal is the least expensive 3.5* or better you can simply start with the section section. When bidding 4* in Pittsburgh you have SIXTEEN re-bid zones... at the 3.5* level you have FOURTEEN 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* Downtown and University... Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone... 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 add re-bid zone... Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $103, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $108, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $113, if rejected add re-bid zone...

roplan Posted May 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Thanks yellowdog and thereuare. I used the two strategies proposed in my previous thread, trying for 4* first then adjusted to 3 1/2* and up, and ended up with a better deal than the priceline.Express Deal offered($100 for 3 1/2*). I am very happy so far, as this is a Saturday stay during a heavily booked time in Pittsburgh. I used the PRICELINE link provided. Thanks again!!! Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Congratulations on your success! Glad to see you received a great deal for this stay and are pleased with the results, for what seems to be slightly busier than usual dates in the city. Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding. Enjoy your stay.
