I'll be in Dearborn, MI for work on 11/28/16 - 11/30/16. I'm interested to stay at "The Henry" or "The Dearborn Inn, A Marriott Hotel."

 

The current retail price for these hotels on these dates is in the $200-220 range for these dates. I started my bidding at $55, and I increased my bid in $5 increments. When I ran out of free zones, I was at $105, but my offer wasn't accepted. I'd be willing to pay up to $120 or so. I guess I'll try again tomorrow and see if Priceline accepts an offer of $110, $115, or $120.

 

Priceline also has a $158 Express Deal for a 4-star hotel in "Dearborn - Allen Park - Melvindale Area" for these dates. That's a bit out of my price range, though.

Other than increase your bid i don't see many other options at the moment.


However, using your ELEVEN re-bid zones when bidding 4* in this area, i would 'backtrack' your bids a little just in case some lower priced inventory is released between now and the next time you bid, such as:

 

Select 4* Dearborn

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 $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...

Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $118, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $120

I just did some more bidding.

I didn't do the backtrack thing, but I resumed today at $110, and continued in $5 increments all the way up to $130. Still no luck.

 

I used the PRICELINE link.

I splurged and decided to keep bidding!

I bid up to $150 in $10 increments. Offer accepted at $150. I got The Henry. :)

 

The 3.5* and lower hotels on Priceline don't really appeal to me. I was about to book the new Holiday Inn Express for $110/night, and I decided I was willing to pay a bit more. 

 

Details:

Offer price: $150.00/night

Number of rooms: 1 room

Number of nights: 2 nights

Room subtotal: $300.00

Taxes & fees: $50.82

Total charged today: $350.82

 

Rack rate on The Henry is $224/night + fees for these dates.
