    Re: $100 a night downtown hotel

    If you do a 3 star at $105, it will search not only 3 stars, but also 3.5, and 4, if they find a place willing to accept it they will upgrade you. As I am sure is the case with the people who got the Crowne Plaza at 3.5 stars on Priceline.

        $77 for two guests now on Hotwire. We've got six headed there on Friday!

              The crave case is always a little cheaper, 30 sliders, 2 fries, 30 bones. It was funny last time we got back from St. Louis my wife wanted to know why there were three charges on our credit card from White Castle for $31.84.

                    I am going to guess you should be able to check in before 3 as a lot of people aren't coming in until Friday. A good way to check is Thursday night go to their website and try to book a block of rooms, like 7 or 8 rooms or so. If they are available that means they will have clean rooms to check you into. Remember, people behind hotel desks are nice people by trade, that is why they have their job. Just be nice to them and kiss their but a little bit, be open to accept failure and be amazed at how many people want to work to help you succeed.

                        We booked ours for Friday and Saturday night regardless of what happens on Friday. If we win, great we're still leaving Sunday, if we lose then we have a day to bum around St. Louis on Saturday and we leave in decent time on Sunday to get back and get more homework done. Either way, a weekend I'm looking forward to!

                          I have been fortunate enough to watch Jeg kissing butt at the check in desk. It's amazing. I was almost brought to tears.

                            I think you can do better than that at Drury.

                              I would be you could easily do a Friday night on Hotwire, wait for a UNI victory and get another downtown hotel on Hotwire after the game. The only thing would be you might have to switch hotels.

                              We went for two nights based on the fact that we got those two nights for less than the price of a single night on the hotel sites.
