thereuare Posted January 1, 2008 Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 Rates are date specific, and your dates take place during spring break for many public schools across the country, and therefore probably have higher rates than a random date in January.As your bidding doesn't seem to follow any set structure, can you clariy:-which zones are you willing to accept-what is the minimum star rating you're willing to accept-what is your maximum budget (and are you willing to pay more for a higher rated hotel, or is least expensive at your minimum star rating your goal)-what is the best rate you're able to find thru conventional methods (use our BetterChecker to help make your research easier) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
