michael4435 Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 hi... it's been a long time since I made a request (lack of money = lack of travel) but I'm so glad this site is here... you are doing everyone a great service!I need help bidding on a room for honolulu for 4/3-4/6. I'm looking for Waikiki Beach Area, in a resort or 4 star, and paying around $150-$160 (max). I can also do a 3 star but in Waikiki City Central, paying up to $100. I would rather not do a 3 star in the Waikiki Beach Area since the Park Shore is in that zone and I did not like it the last time I stayed there. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment
thereuare Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 In the Beach zone are you willing to pay more for a Resort vs. a 4* or is the least expensive of the two your goal?Did you want to bid up to your maximum for a 4*/Resort in the Beach zone before switching gears and trying for a 3* in the City Central zone?Let us know the above and we'll advise accordingly.

michael4435 Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 We had a wonderful stay at the Hyatt! So much that we're thinking of going back in December (probably 12/27-12/29) on our way back from Asia. Do you think it's too early to start bidding for the Hyatt again? If so, when do you think we should start? Thanks again for helping us bid and win a great hotel! Link to comment
