Priceline Hotel: 4* DC (Dupont Circle-Woodley Park) Omni Shoreham

[AmyA]

I'm in town for business for a few days, wanted to extend my stay by 1 day for pleasure and needed a more budget-friendly alternative to the conference hotel which I'm staying at, so I decided to try my luck with Priceline.

Bid strategy:

I used the PRICELINE link through this site and advice on this forum. I bid for the night of 10/26/08 which is a Sunday night.

Bid History:

White House - Downtown, 4 star, $65

Bid Rejected

Closed window, opened new window using PRICELINE link on this site, and tried again

Convention Ctr - Capitol Hill area, 4 star, $65

Bid Rejected

Dupont Circle - Woodley Park, 4 star, $66

Bid Accepted, for the Omni Shoreham. :)

I was really suprised to win a room on my first bid in this zone. The Omni Shoreham is 0.2 miles away from the conference hotel I'm staying it so it'll be a quick and easy transfer over.

Thanks to everyone who shared their advice.
