Priceline Hotel: Washington DC 08/01/09-08/03/09 - Bidding Help

[Voyager10000]

Good afternoon,

I am new to this site and the concept of Priceline and would like some help with my bidding please.

We are looking for a 3.5* or 4* in the 3 areas Crystal City, Convention Center-Capitol Hill or White House-Downtown.

Arriving late on the 1st August (9pm).

Is it too early to start bidding for a room?

Also, could anyone give me any suggestions of a bidding strategy?

I need a room with twin beds and from what I understand this is something that is not possible to specify. Is this something that would be easy to request once the room has been won?

Thank you all for your help. :)

If you are a party of more than 2 and need 2 beds, the best suggestion would be to use HOTWIRE. What would be your max budget per night for hotel?

Please use the site's HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links when you decide to book.

Thank you.

We are a party of 2, but we need to have 2 beds rather than one big one. The only way I thought I would be able to garantee this is by searching for 3 adults in 1 room (thereby garanteeing 2 beds).

We also had a problem that we have a car and didnt want to pay a fortune for the parking.

I have actually found a 3.5* Courtyard by Marriott Alexandria Pentagon South for $122 (all taxes inc.).

Thank you for your help.
