Simarik3 Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Hello,I have been trying to get a cheap hotel on Priceline for these dates but everything seems to be over my budget because of the weekend.Could you help with the bidding strategy?I'm looking for a 4* or more in the Strip area (South - I'm afraid I'll get the SLS if I pick North). Max. price per night: $75 (have previously tried $65 with no success but I don't want to go for a 3,5* or another area)I am also considering the Golden Nugget in Downtown Vegas, it seems to be the only 4* in that area. It costs $72 on Priceline... How low could I bid?Thanks for your help! Link to comment
AaronJB Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)I'm a tad surprised your bid hasn't been accepted at $65, as I'm seeing a $78 4* in the South Strip zone on Hot.wire w/Resort, Casino, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Golf, Spa, Free Parking, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Wheelchair Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower.-- This would be a possible match for the Tropicana. I'd try again at $67, $70, $72, $75 using re-bidding. If that doesn't work, there's the Hot.wire listing for a few dollars higher. Let us know your thoughts and if we can be of further assistance. Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches. Link to comment
