Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTW) Hilton Times Square

[monkeygeo]

4* NYC (MTW)

$115 ... 2/26/07 - 3/2/07

Hilton Times Square

234 West 42nd Street

My strategy:

Selected 4* MTE...

Bid $110, when rejected added re-bid zone UES

Bid $115, when rejected added re-bid zone UWS

Bid $120, when rejected closed browser and re-accessed priceline.

Selected 4* MTW...

Bid $110, when rejected added re-bid zone UES

Bid $115, SUCCESS.

When I selected 4* MTW and my initial bid of $110 was rejected, Priceline invited me to bid $22 more without requiring addition of more zones or star levels. I ignored the suggestion and proceeded with my $5 bid increase (and re-bid zone of UES) and succeeded.

Thanks so much for the guidance. I'm very happy with the location of the hotel and its reviews seem good too.
