Karen's [[:tips:frugal|frugalness]] lead her to check the hotel web site room rate daily, //while we were already in the room//. She learned that if the hotel is not full on a given day they will lower the rate in the hopes of filling the room. The going rate for the [[http://www.elanhotel.com|Elan Hotel]] when we were there was $200 per night. She got rates for $112 and $153 a night more than once when we were there. | Karen's [[:tips:frugal|frugalness]] lead her to check the hotel web site room rate daily, //while we were already in the room//.

| The downside to any hotel in the L.A. area is if there is a convention in town, or during Duke's graduations in Durham. Those people know to schedule a year in advance and we don't, the hotels raise their rates during those, if you can get a room at all. :-( |
