lesg666 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Got $50.00 rate on the first bid. $50.00 used to be the trigger amount to get the Courtyard by Marriott near the Airport. Price on Hilton's website is $139.00 as well as Expedia and Hotels.com. My experience has been that if I bid lower than the $50.00, they offer a dollar amount you can increase your bid by to purchase a room. You can always add another zone that doesn't offer a 3* property and increase your bid. I have done this previously and have bid upwards of $60.00 without success. I think the secret is just to find the trigger amounts that hopefully will get you the property you want. I didn't expect the Airport Hilton, but from the reviews, I am certain it will be a great place to stay. I had a 50/50 chance of getting the Courtyard by Marriott again; it is a very nice property, but no Restaurants. They have small Breakfast area, but that's it. Hilton sounds like it has a few more amenities.
