eiloo Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 Hi,I was looking for advice on a strategy for this bid.I'm looking for Miami Downtown for the above dates which is straddling two cruises. I would like to pay less than $70 after taxes (if possible) for a 3*.If the above can't be done, then I wouldn't mind taking a Coral Gables for less than that price.Looks like there are only two rebids at North Miami and Southwest Miami.Any help is appreciated.
thereuare Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 Based upon current rates I think you may have a tough time with your budget, but to give it a try with your two re-bid zones i'd try as follows:Select 3* Downtown...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 3* Downtown and re-bid zone2...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $70Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

eiloo Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Posted October 8, 2007 Thanks for the tip. Will try it after my lock period expires.
thereuare Posted October 8, 2007 Report Posted October 8, 2007 In the future, if you previously bid this stay please include that information in your original post as it could effect the strategy provided and save you time in 'wasted' bids.

eiloo Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 Hi,Hotwire has a 2* hotel for $39/night in Downtown Miami with Laundry Facilities and High Speed Internet Access. Any idea as to what hotel that may be?Could you use dry cleaning service as an identifier which would be different from lanudry facilities?
thereuare Posted October 11, 2007 Report Posted October 11, 2007 Dates of your stay?If different than your current Priceline Miami thread please update that thread with any follow-ups to what you have tried) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
eiloo Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 Sorry about that... it's Dec 8 to 9 for one night.I haven't tried the Priceline yet... just weighing my options at this point.

eiloo Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Posted October 11, 2007 I would be ready to purchase from Hotwire if I could get an idea as to the property for the 2*. Otherwise, I'd start the Priceline bids for the 3* right away since I'm getting closer to the date of the stay.
thereuare Posted October 12, 2007 Report Posted October 12, 2007 This property has not yet been identified, but you're porbably looking at something along the lines of a Days Inn, Ramada, or extedned stay type of property (Homestead, Extended StayAmerica, etc)Please use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchase thru that service.Let us know what you decide or if we can be of further help.
