maths887 Posted January 8, 2009 Report Posted January 8, 2009 Three nights at Westin Grant in the West End in DC for $105 a night.My approach was to include the Georgetown/FoggyBottom, Convention/CapitolHill, and WhiteHouse/Downtown areas for a 4* starting at $75, and adding Mt. Vernon, DC Suburbs, and Springfield and increasing my bid by $10 each. I have tried this every 24 hours for almost an entire month, but stayed strong and kept my bids very consistent (within a few dollars of estimating and changing each time). I would then renew a bit at the 3.5* level and do the exact same thing with lower bids (usually $60 - $75).This time, though, I did not have to go to the 3.5* bids as I was accepted at The Westin Grand in DC!The rates online for Best Rate Available at $549 for each night excluding tax, so I got an amazing deal. Not to mention they just underwent a gigantic renovation and a friend of mine in DC said the renovation puts it up among the best hotels in DC. Thanks BetterBidding! Your ideas and help on how to bid made this a success story!
