abseeya Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Hi - I'm completely new to priceline bidding and would appreciate your help...We will be arriving in SF late Dec. 25th [around midnight] just want a place to put our heads down near the airport before heading into the city the 26th.Looking for a 4* near the airport for around $50...please help Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 You have 3 re-bid zones avialable at the 4* level. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* SFO...Bid $41, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $44, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $47, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $50.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.PS- have you done anything with your other Priceline thread yet?

abseeya Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Ok so I've read the re-bidding page and I think this is how I should proceed...your confirmation would be appreciated...Cathedral Hill, South San Francisco and Civic Centre all have hotels only at the 3* range or below...so if I were to do the following as recommended:Select 4* SFO...Bid $41, if rejected add re-bid zone...i.e. add Cathedral Hill along with SFO checked off as wellBid $44, if rejected add re-bid zone...i.e. add South SF along with Cathedral Hill and SFO checked off and so on?Thanks again! Will definitely use the savingsbarn link to get to priceline. Link to comment

abseeya Posted December 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Thanks for the input...I've posted the results. Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 Congratulations on your win and thank you for sharing it with the board.Glad it worked out well for you... i've stayed at this property before and it is a very nice Hyatt (and zbenye recommends asking for a room facing the courtyard as the streets side can be a bit noisy).Enjoy your stay.
