Priceline Hotel: Need help with 4* hotel in Downtown - Financial District??

[joeytraveler]

I need to book for July 1 - July 3 (2 nights) in New York City.  I found a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal for $92/night for a 4* in the Downtown - Financial District.  It says it saves 34% which would put the regular rate at $139/night which matches the Holiday Inn.  

 

The amenities are the following:

 

Business Center

Restaurant
Free Internet
Fitness Center

 

Is this a good deal for this hotel? Would bidding on it get me a price lower than this say around $80? If so what would be my re-bid zones here for new york city?  Also on Hotwire there is a 4* in the same Downtown - Financial District for $96 and shows a savings of 37% which puts the regular rate at $154.  So not sure if same hotel or different?

 

Please advise.  Is the Downtown - Financial District best place for first time visitors to see the majority of attractions? Or should we consider a different area?

Was not able to win Montreal room with $130 bid.

Best guess would be Club Quarters, World Trade Center.
