Used the SavingsBarn link to bid/book on 04/17.

Bid *3 Jersey City $70- Rejected

Added Elizabeth and raised to $78- Accepted

I had tried bidding the same zone on 04/15, but was rejected.

Bid *3 Jersey City $70- Rejected

Added Elizabeth and raised to $75- Rejected

Maybe the extra $3 was all that would have been needed the first time.

Thanks for the site- and the better atmosphere.

Peace-

Will be flying into JFK -- don't land until 10PM

would it be wiser to get a hotel near JFK, then

transfer to Jersey City next day?

what is the best way to get from JFK to Jersey City?

BTW, good to note that the rack rate was $309 and HW had what is likely the Hyatt at $117 for 4/22.

Actually, this is the history for HW for what is likely the Hyatt:

• 4/15- $134
  
• 4/16- $117
  
• 4/17- $116
  
• 4/19- back up to $117
  

Given the significant drop in price from Monday to Tuesday, I figured they must have plenty of availability, so I went for it.

As far as your question about where it's better to stay the night you arrive, I can't tell you since I'n not local to the area. I know the Hyatt is right next to the PATH station, but I'm not sure how much of a hassel it might be to get to downtown Manhattan and take the PATH out to Jersey at 11 PM with all your luggage and what-not. But if you're on a tight budget.... might want to consider trying it.
