tommygemmell Posted April 4, 2007 Report Posted April 4, 2007 I am looking to pay around $175 -$200 3* or 4*.Not too bothered on location....anywhere around Midtown would suffice.Could you please advice on a bidding strategy.Thanks.
thereuare Posted April 5, 2007 Report Posted April 5, 2007 Are you willing to pay more for a 4* vs. a 3* or are you looking for the least expensive 3* or better hotel?MTE, MTW, UM/CPS, and MTS are all acceptable?
