[Colfax]

Bids placed the night before, through BetterBidding's PRICELINE link.

$50/2.5* NO. $55/2.5* YES.

ResInn's best rate online was $229!

With savings like that I'm not going to complain about the $22/night parking, valet only.

I won this the night before my stay.

The day of my stay I tried to extend one night with Add a Night. Request was refused with no counteroffer. Res Inn was $229 on the night I won at $55 and $259 on the night I was refused. $229 vs $259...not a big difference.

I tried conventional bidding then and was rejected up to $75 for 2.5* in Beverly Hills-West Hollywood and Hollywood zones, and up to $68 for 2* in the same two zones.

This morning I see Res Inn's rate has dropped to $229, same rate as the night I won. I wonder if my Add a Night request would have been accepted if I'd waited a few more hours for the rate drop? I'll never know. You can only try Add a Night once per reservation and I'd already booked something else by the time I saw the rate drop.
