booking gold

Just a little breakfast nook

Just a little breakfast nook

Those that know me know I am an obsessive planner.  For this trip though I planned to be spontaneous (it’s really not as big of a contradiction as it sounds) and boy did it pay off!

The great thing about this last three day weekend was that it ran Saturday to Monday and there are tons of hotel deals for those that stay on Sunday night.
Case in point? I got to stay in a hotel with this lovely little breakfast nook for a ridciuslous cheap price (all because I–at the last minute–prepaid with my booking).   So, to those that come in the future I urge you to ignore your inner planner, and plan a bit of spontaneity*.

I know I’m certain glad I did.

*note: some spontaneity is good but waiting too long will mean the good deals will swing back the other way and once again be expensive.  I booked this hotel about 1.5 weeks before I intended to check in.  That seems to be about the optimal window.
