Priceline Hotel: 4* Toronto (Downtown) Sheraton Centre

[travelAlot]

Very deliberate successul bid, taking advantage of most rebid opportunities in $1 increments (at the end) and utilizing various research.

My intended hotel was the Sheraton Centre and I was very aggressive today -- having seen the hotel come up on PL travel packages slightly less ($10-15 or so) than the Sutton Place and a few other less-central properties. Knowing that PL's cost was likely $2-5 per night less for the Sheraton Centre, I started fairly low (no problem catching lightning in a bottle, lol) in the low $50s (most 4-star bids are mid-$60s for the floor) -- and then began bidding in $1 increments when I hit $60 to increase my chances of nailing down the Sheraton Centre. Could've waited until the weekend got closer but wanted the Sheraton Centre if at all possible -- rate paid was a couple bucks/night less than the Delta Chelsea rate on Hotwire (so an upgrade for less). Total cost of $155 was $200 ($100/night) less than Sheraton's cheapest published prepaid rate.

Hoping to get the the same area myself for October. Glad to see that you won for $65, I was hoping to buy around the $60 range in the downtown area.
