bobcook54 Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 After reading the previous post for a room in Downtown Cleveland, I used a similiar strategy,although I concentrated on just a 4* in the Downtown area.Being in Downtown Cleveland many times for ball games, I knew that the Hyatt, the Marriott, and the Renessance are the only 4* hotels there....of which any of the three would be fine,but the Hyatt is the only one that comes up on a regular bases. I started with a bid of $55.00,failed, added Brookpark, where there are no 4* hotels, according to Betterbidding's hotel list,and raised the price to $60.00. Again,rejected. Added Elyria(again no 4*),raised the price to $65.00 and accepted.$83.74 with all taxes and fees. As with all Downtown hotels, you will pay for parking. My suggestion for this hotel is to use the parking garage right next door instead of the valet parking. It will save you about $10.00 a night and no long wait to retrieve your car. Pretty good deal for this hotel considering the Indians will be playing their rival Tigers and will be a sold out game. Also,with the new casino now open,hotel rates have risen considerably. Just a note.....the Embassy Suites downtown is closed and being converted into apartments,so you may want to consider removing it from your hotel list. As always, I used and encourage all, to use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links listed here to start your searches and purchases. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 11, 2014 Report Share Posted June 11, 2014 Congratulations on your success! Glad to see you are pleased with the hotel and deal you received and are looking forward to another nice time in the area. One comment (and if you're already aware, then for others who may be reading along): ...where there are no 4* hotels, according to Betterbidding's hotel list...Never use the board hotel lists to determine your re-bid zones, the only method which should be used is discussed outlined here: Priceline Re-Bidding Explained Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding. Have a great trip! PS- thanks for the parking tips and the note regarding the Embassy Suites. :) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
