I would guess an 85% success rate. You have to be careful when bidding with priceline though, understand it before you go overpaying and checking off areas or star levels you really don’t want.
Wow....this is my 1000 post!!!!!!!!!

well, i have used priceline for hotels about 100 times so im pretty experienced'
i did forget about this site for a few years and just remembered it today because i did priceline for 4 star hotel in NYC
229 all in for place that goes for 450.
if i had the site, i would have probably paid about 200 all in, so not bad
i use to do priceline for all my hotels in BKK, but seems a lot harder than it use to be
