thereuare Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Welcome to BetterBidding!I had to stay in this area about a year ago and the only 2 hotels that i'm familiar with are the Garden City hotel and the Wingate Inn.... both of which i think would be rated higher than 2 stars (and both have a business center!)Have you considered bidding this area on Priceline at the 3* level?If you'd like to try that let us know and we'll suggest recommended bidding levels.

taegwon Posted April 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 thank you for your offer to help me on bidding. I'd love to try priceline, although I have no experience with it.Basically, I want a room in Garden city, NY region on June 25 for one night. If only I knew what the 2 star hotel is, which is listed on hotwire site, I'd like to book one, looks like nobody has any idea.Please advise me so that I can win a room over priceline.ByeTaegwon Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 This may be tough since the Wingate appears to be sold-out for your date... do you know if there is some special event in the area?If you're not familiar with re-bidding it is discussed in detail here: RE-Bidding Explained, but feel free to ask any questions you may have regarding the strategy.You have 1 re-bid zone in the area and i would bid as follows:Select 3* and bid $60, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $70.If rejected...Select 2.5*and bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zond and...Bid $60.If rejected (and you want to bid 2*)...Select 2* and bid $45, if rejected add re-bid zone and...Bid $55.Let us know how it goes.

ZZyzx000 Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 If you search Travelocity for a pool near Uniondale, the Day's Inn in Hicksville pops up as the most likely candidate (and few would give it a 2*...how about a 1/2*) Link to comment
