ontaillou Posted September 15, 2009 Report Posted September 15, 2009 Hello all,I am looking at booking a hotel on 09/25 - 2 nights for 3 adults if possible under $150/night. I'd like to stay in Manhattan Mid-town or anywhere else, but it doesn't seem I can find anything. We're flying in/out of JFK. I don't mind booking something in Brooklyn. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

ontaillou Posted September 15, 2009 Author Report Posted September 15, 2009 forgot: 3* or 3.5* is fine!
thereuare Posted September 15, 2009 Report Posted September 15, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!The zones you've listed above are from PRICELINE, but you say you're looking for a room for 3adults, and PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy. There are many standard rooms in NYC that only have one bed and no room for a rollaway, so the risk of receiving a room with only one bed goes up dramatically. Is this an acceptable risk?Have you already bid all of these zones up to $150?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.
