MJRBIM Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 I started bidding for 2.5 * two-nights 05/29 to 05/31 at $55, but nothing was coming up - so I waited three times for the 24 hour Lock-Out to end. Bid up each day in the Ottawa and Hull zones.Finally hit at $80 with a "bump" to the 3* Ottawa Holiday Inn Gatineau.===========Check-In Date: Monday, May 28, 2007Check-Out Date: Thursday, May 31, 2007Hotel Name:Holiday Inn Gatineau Ottawa Plz2 Montcalm StreetGatineau, Quebec J8X 4B4819-778-3880Your Offer Price: $80.00 (US dollars)Number of Rooms: 1Number of Nights: 3Subtotal: $240.00 (US dollars)Taxes and Service Fees: $44.91 (US dollars)Total Charges: $284.91 (US dollars)===============The best rate on the Hotel site is a pre-paid at $125.10 (CDN) = $115.09 (USD) per night plus tax...so this PL rate is a $35 US per night savings.
