azcats Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 Looking to get a room in downtown SD for Saturday the 26th to Monday the 28th. I've already booked a room thru Priceline at the Hotel Solamar for 100$ about a month ago, but now the rates on the web site are around 430$. I'm hoping to get another 4* for less than 130$. but I'll probably settle for a 3* for a little less. Any thoughts?
thereuare Posted April 18, 2007 Report Posted April 18, 2007 You have 11 re-bid zones when bidding 4* in the San Diego area. 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* San Diego Downtown...Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $123, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $126, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130The above takes into consideration your recently rejected bid up to $120 in this zone (if i remember correctly)If rejected post back and we'll take it from there.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

azcats Posted April 19, 2007 Author Report Posted April 19, 2007 Tried the 4* strategy all the way up to 130$. No luck. Went ahead and used 3*, and started at 85$, going up in 5$ increments. Got the Holiday Inn on the Bay for 100$. I don't remember seeing it on the list, so maybe this could be added. My parents stayed there and its not too bad (though I got the Hotel Solamar for the same price on the same dates a few weeks ago). Decent location, right across the street from the Star of India, the US Midway and some good seafood restaurants. Plus, you either have a view of the Bay or of Downtown/Airport. Holiday Inn On The Bay Check-In Date: Saturday, May 26, 2007 Check-Out Date: Monday, May 28, 2007 Your Offer Price: $100.00 Extend Your Stay Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 2 Subtotal: $200.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $31.97 Total Charges*: $231.97
