momo1tx Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Hi!Am looking for some help for a hotel:Dates: Aug 20-22 (Friday-Sunday)Area: Hunt Valley/TimoniumMax. bid: $50would like 2.5* or 3*Thanks!!
thereuare Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Would you be willing to raise your minimum to $55? A prior report indicated the Embassy Suites was won (at the 3* level) in this zone when the user's $50 bid was previously rejected. Of course, we'd start lower than this and use RE-BID ZONES, but want to provide a strategy that is most appropriate given your parameters. Don't know if you'd rather try the additional $5 or lower your bid if rejected at lower levels.Let us know and i'll post a tailored strategy based upon your parameters.

momo1tx Posted August 19, 2004 Author Report Posted August 19, 2004 $50 is as high as I want to go--I understand my chances are very slim. It's not an event that I need to attend, just was hoping I could get a real deal.Thanks!!
thereuare Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Ok then, you have 4 re-bid zones available.

momo1tx Posted August 20, 2004 Author Report Posted August 20, 2004 Sorry if I don't get this, but I didn't see any 4* hotels for Hunt Valley/Timonium...Did you mean start out with 3* for the first round and then drop to 2.5 *?Thanks!
thereuare Posted August 20, 2004 Report Posted August 20, 2004 Yes, i meant 3* and then 2.5*, i will edit the above now. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
momo1tx Posted August 20, 2004 Author Report Posted August 20, 2004 Was unsuccessful with $50. There is a bridge tournament at the Hunt Valley Marriott, probably they don't have any problem filling rooms this weekend.Thanks for all your help!!
