lzgutt Posted September 25, 2004 Report Posted September 25, 2004 After not winning a bid at $45 (same night) at the Hyatt Jersey City (website had it sold out), bid $100 for a 4* in New York on a lark. After 3-4 minutes of Priceline grinding away and reaching a decision:Westin New York Times Square Check-In Date: Saturday, September 25, 2004 Check-Out Date: Sunday, September 26, 2004 Midtown West270 West 43rd Street New York, New York 10036 212-201-2700 Your Offer Price: $100.00 Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Nights: 1 Subtotal: $100.00 Taxes and Service Fees: $21.21 Total Charges: $121.21
lzgutt Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Posted September 25, 2004 I should note two things. First, that this bid was placed on the day of stay (9am for a 3pm check-in).The hotel's internet-prepaid rate was $249 and the best available rate was $259.
thereuare Posted September 25, 2004 Report Posted September 25, 2004 Thanks for the winning bid!I think you did very well, especially for a same-day bid. Thank you for adding the additional information about the 'conventional rates'... i'm trying to start to keep track of this information so you providing it in your post was a big help.Hope you enjoyed the hotel and NYC!
