ohtravelbug Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 We didn't have as good luck bidding this time as in the past. Wondering if it's because we originally only wanted one area (Old Towne Alexandria). After some research, we opened it up to Crystal City. Our bids went over several days, and we may not have them quite right. Here's what we remember:Bid $45 for Alexandria, 3.5*, declined immediatelyBid $50 for Alexandria, 3.0*, declined immediately Bid $55 for Alexandria, 3.5*, declinedBid $50 for Alexandria & Crystal City, 3.0*, declinedBid $55 for Alexandria & Crystal City, 3.5*, declinedBid $62 for Alexandria & Crystal City, 3.0* and finally won (upgraded to 3.5*).Hopefully this location is OK. We said Crystal City but see the address of the hotel is in Arlington. I'm sure we have a lot to learn about bidding, but sure appreciate this betterbidding site!Doubletree Crystal City At National Airport Crystal City300 Army Navy Drive Arlington, Virginia 22202 703-416-4100Check-In Date:Thu, Apr 16, 2009 / After 03:00 PMCheck-Out Date:Fri, Apr 17, 2009 / 12:00 PM Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $62.00 Subtotal: $62.00 Taxes & Service Fees: $16.29 Total Charges*: $78.29
AaronJB Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 Congratualtions on your win!Sorry the hotel is not exactly what you were looking for; reviews are generally pretty good though, and at least you'll get a Doubletree Cookie at check-in. :)Thank you for sharing it with the board and using the site's PRICELINE link to start your bidding.Enjoy your stay.
