bhagavas Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 I'm looking to book 3 rooms in any Resort in the San Juan area during the July 4th Weekend: The exact dates July 3rd thro July 7th. The best price in hotwire was $149.00 + taxes. The prices on the hotel websites:Intercontinental: $219.00 + taxesHilton Caribe: $135.00 + taxesHotel San Juan: $209.00 + taxesMarriott San Juan & stellaris Casino: $209.00 + taxesWhat would be the best strategy bid for these hotels? Also, should I wait for a few weeks before bidding. Tks.
