Priceline Hotel: 4* Baltimore (Inner Harbor-Downtown) Marriott Waterfront

[anitasc]

First bid $60 rejected

Priceline asked for a $17 increase to rebid. I increased my bid to $77. Accepted :)

Marriott Waterfront rooms are currently listed as starting at $179/night on marriott.com

While I think everyone would agree that $77 is a fantastic price (and congratulations), you probably could have gotten it even cheaper.

Generally priceline will sell the room to you for less than the "counteroffer" amount. From the bidding history posted here, you probably could have gotten it at $70.

If I'm counting right, for 4* Baltimore Inner Harbor, you have 11 "free rebids". You could have increased your bid $1 or $2 at a time to get a better price. You might find this article on FREE REBIDS helpful.

Regardless, you got a fantastic deal. Congratulations!
