pennstate22 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 I needed to book another room in Newport - Goat Island and Newport Beach zone, 3* or higher for 7/4-7/5. Newport Harbor Marina's wants $400 for the room if book directly. The Newport Hyatt wants $389 for 1 King room and $429 for a 2 double beds. Hotwire only has 4 stars available and is the same price at the Hyatt if booked directly.I could use some bidding advice.Thanks Link to post

pennstate22 Posted June 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 I started at $200. My last bid was this past Saturday and I bid up to $300 for 7/4 and it was rejected. That is my maximum. Perhaps I should wait until tomorrow and restart my bidding? Link to post
pennstate22 Posted June 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 Nevermind, I just got the Marriott for $100 for Saturday night 7/4. Unbelievable! Website rate is $439. Link to post

FreebiePlea Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 This would suggest that waiting is worthwhile...I've been bidding on Newport 3-3.5 stars up to $110 for the past few days and nothing! Looking for 8/14-16 Link to post
