wilsonucla Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Started at betterbidding.com and used PRICELINE link. Tried 3* at $50 for May 24-25, however I was rejected. Any idea what this area usually goes for? It said 3* was the best deal.Thanks! Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 If you enter "Charlottesville" (w/o the quotes) in the QUICK SEARCH box at the top of the board you will see all wins for this zone.Usually $50 is enough, but it can sometimes take a little more... i would try up to $60 over the next few days before taking a break for a week or so. (assuming this is within your budget)Thanks for using our PRICELINE link.Keep us updated or let us know if we can be of further help.

wilsonucla Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Tried today for $55, and was rejected once again for a 3*. May try a little lower for a 2.5* later today or tomorrow. Why does waiting a week help? Hotels lower prices closer to the date? Link to comment
kevbo425 Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 As I mentioned in my Charlottesville Priceline post, I've been trying these same dates for a few weeks. It seems like a 3* is going to be considerably higher than $50. Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Waiting a week doesn't necessarily help, but it gives you an oportunity to take a break and hopefully have some lower priced inventory loaded into the system Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
wilsonucla Posted April 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Tried Last week for a hotel in this area for Memorial Day Weekend, and was rejected at $50 and $60. Used PRICELINE Link on betterbidding.com and today I won this hotel. Hopefully it will be nice. Thanks again for helping me get this deal! Link to comment
