    UpSideDown, you'll need to correct the Columbus hotel info:

    the $52 (excluding fees) offer via Priceline was for the Holiday Inn Downtown at Capitol Square, not the Holiday Inn Worthington.
    To quote the 10C from Newsletter #8: "Please understand we have a lot of members and it is very hard to please everybody. If you are one of those unhappy people...please call 1-900-IDN-TCAR."

    That's a great deal and the best possible hotel to get in Hartford in terms of proximity to the venue. I'll be just around the corner at the Residence Inn :mrgreen:

    i really wanted wyndham playhouse square for cleveland, and i was ready to pay the pauper, but i was messing around earlier this morning, and put in $40 for a 2 star assuming that it would be rejected, and bam, it was accepted - staying at the comfort inn for $40 + $13.50 taxes & fees, $53.50 total - kinda bittersweet, happy to save $50 over another property, but not entirely satisfied with the accommodations - maybe next time

    Me too... I dont know which I'd rather be at, but I'm just glad to have gotten it done. I was nervous those hotels would all fill up since Hartford was the hardest city to book a hotel through priceline!

    edit: I did forget the Residence is all suites, so that's pretty cool... even if its just me solo I will live like a king. ;)

    well done, that's $20 less (excluding fees) than I was accepted at only 3 days ago for the same property. just goes to show you (and me, i suppose),...

    I was just on Priceline, and i can't figure out how you put bids in. Can anyone give me directions how? I'd like to stay over, but NOT for OVER $200. I'll drove the 4 hours back home, before i spend that much.

    You can't select a specific property using the "name your own price" feature on Priceline. That is your downside (along with having your credit card charged immediately). But, based on recent accepted bids for 3-star hotels in downtown Hartford, you will most likely get the Hilton with a similar bid.

    I got the Hilton Garden Inn in Cleveland on my third bid on priceline $75. I just got Adam's Mark for a bid of $65 on my first try, so you could start lower in Buffalo. My passport came in yesterday as well, everything is in place for my first Pearl Jam shows outside Canada.

    Anybody get any good stuff for the Garden shows?

    I just picked up an $89 room at the Jane. Looks like a fancy version of a hostel. Nice thing was the 2 miles from the Garden.
