Priceline Hotel: 3* Cincinnati (Downtown) Millenium Hotel

[ashkap]

Something bizzare happened...

I saw the $35 bids people had won for Cincy 3*, so thought I will try the same for my weekend trip to the ATP Masters Tournament. Started at $40 for 4* Downtown, rejected, added 3* for $30, rejected, added two free zones uptil $40 and rejected both times.

Now here is the twist... just on a whim I to have my wife try four hours later. Same route, $40 for 4* Downtown BUT then went to $35 for 3* thinking I will eventually bump it to $45 with the free bids. ACCEPTED at $35!!

One of two things is possible:

1) Millenium Hotel released some rooms to Priceline within those four hours.

2) The unique combination of $40 for 4* and THEN $35 for 3* gets you the room. I think the other two Millenium Hotel winners also went straight to $35 for 3* after a $40 bid for 4*.

Either way, I am happy!! :)

I don't think some 'secret combination' has anything to do with it... inventory has to change at some point in the day, so you probably just hit it right.
