Priceline Hotel: 4* San Fancisco (USE) Park Hyatt San Francisco

[sb589004]

Bidding on 2 rooms for Sat night, 10/2. Started at $60 and bid up to $86...would have thought that would be high enough.

Looks like some pretty big conventions in town at that time though. I guess I'll wait the 72 hours and try again.

Any suggestions about other areas that are convenient to the cruise terminal? We're getting off a cruise ship on the morning of 10/2 and flying out 10/3. Thanks!

I don't think you're too far off (maybe a few dollars but probably less than $30), but if you don't want to bid higher, how about USW? (it's very close to the USE zone).

The Fisherman's Wharf zone might be equally appropriate. The SF crusie terminal is at Pier 35 - if you look at Priceline's FW Zone map, locate Pier 39 and count down two piers to the right of 39 (the piers are odd-numbered on this side of the Ferry Building).

Tried bidding this one again, this time up to $96, still failed. I still have some time but I'll probably start deciding what other areas/stars we'd be happy with.

Tried for Fisherman's Wharf 3* (thanks for the advice TBQ). Bid $65 (rejected) then free rebid $70 (rejected). It's not as much fun when there's only one re-bid. :)

I'll try again after the 72 hours, probably:

USE 4* up to $95, then

FW 3* $70 then re-bid $75

unless anyone has any other advice.

The Club Quarters (USE 3*) doesn't look too appealing to me, so that's why I'm staying away from the USE 3*.

Finally got this one:

Bid FW 3* $75 & $83, rejected.

Bid USE 4* rejected up to $90 but got it at $95.
