tufty2000 Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 I've been bidding higher and higher amounts over several days (and adding zones) for a 3* and above room for Charleston for the weekend of 5/17-5/19. I've bid from $90 to $145, and now include downtown, Ashley River and Isle of Palms as acceptable zones. I keep getting shot down. It must be a popular weekend (I believe they are having the maritime festival). Any idea what it would take to get a room? I'm thinking of going down to 2.5 stars although I really like having a workout facility.Thanks. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 If you're willing to accept the Ashley River zone then HOTWIRE has a 3* propety in this area for $139 (less than you've already bid) believe to be the Holiday Inn (if this would work for your needs...

tufty2000 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Well, after days of bidding and failing, I finally got a hotel in Charleston -- the Renaissance Charleston for $165 a night in the downtown/historic district. That's a bit more than I wanted to spend, but it's about $120 less than they quoted on their website. I wanted to be downtown, and the Renaissance is a 4 star according to PRICELINE so I think it's a decent deal. Link to comment
