I'm trying to get a hotel room 2.5* or 3* hotel room in El Paso for the night of Wednesday, December 28. I was hoping to get the Marriott or the Courtyard. I have bid past $65 and am surpised to have not even received a counteroffer.

The data for El Paso on betterbidding.com and bft is really old, and there's not much of it. Has anyone had any success bidding for hotels in El Paso?

Also, I would think things would be pretty slow on that date. Is that a correct assumption?

Thanks.
