Priceline Hotel: Looking for a 3* NYC June 20 - 24

Hi there,

I've just started looking into this whole Priceline thing, and this website is proving to be a very valuable resource.

I was hoping somebody might be able to help me formulate a bidding strategy for a trip to NYC.

I'm looking for something in the 3* range, hopefully around $90 if possible.

Dates are June 20 - June 24.

I'm not too picky about areas: CPS, MTE, MTW, TSTD, MSG, ESB, and Chelsea areas would all be suitable options.

Not too many people bidding for a 3* around my dates, mostly for 4* which seem to be priced at $115/night or more.

Should I start bidding in only one area at a lower price (maybe $85) and then add one more area for each rebid? Should I be raising my bid price each time as well? If so, by how much?

Any suggestions on how to proceed would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Brendan

Also--

One note. When you bid 3* -- it's actually 3 star and up, SO you might start with 3.5 stars first. Then add in 3 * as an additional zone (which will still bid up through 3.5 *).

I have stayed in 3* properties there, but that was before they added the 3.5* level, so I'm sure that most of the properties I won are now 3.5 star -- and they were perfectly nice.
