SteveinPhilly1 Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 First off, I LOVE you guys (and ladies!). Now I again nedd some quick help.I need clean room for one night for this Friday 1/12. I have a cancellable room for one at the Clarion at Park and 29th at rate of $101. plus tax which will be $114. But I need to be in the area from 42nd to 59th Sts. I Checked Hotwire and found a Midtown South (same as Clarion 2.5Star for $85. which would be $109. total. Priceline fixed price in Midtown is $129 for 2* Quality Inn (No rooms available per Quality inn Site) and $158 for 3Star.I'd like to bid for at aleast a 2 star on Priceline so that my total is not more than - say $120 (including fees and taxes). That would mean a max bid would be $90. or $91.).My preference would be Midtown East, next would be Midtown West and then CP South as I got the Sheraton Manhattan last year for about $89. plus fees.And Of course a 2.5 star would be okay.I always bid though the system you suggest.Can you help!Steve Link to comment

SteveinPhilly1 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Further followup. I think I'd probably be even better in Upper Midtown/CP South after Midtown East and then Midtown West but I know there are no 2.5* in CP South (at least Priceline told me when I checked.Thanks!Steve Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 In NYC 2* and clean can be mutually exclusive... i dont' think i would bid for a 2* hotel in order to save a couple of dollars.Stick with the Clarion (which we are an affiliate of :) ) if you're happy with that price... or for a similar price you can book the new Pod Hotel (formerly the Pickwick Arms) for $90/nite (for a private bath... shared bath is less) which is located on 51st St and may be more central to your desired location(s).

SteveinPhilly1 Posted January 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks! I checked out reviws on the Pod and it looks "interesting" and will be closer than Clarion (3032 blocks <g>). And I liked fact that you can cancel up to 2 days before. It's only for one night. One review mentioned hall noise but I requested a quiet room and we'll see what I get. And all rooms have PLASMA TVS!So I'm booked!Thanks for the quick link to it!Steve Link to comment
