Take the guesswork out of your hotel choice.

Jen and I are looking to go to Chicago for the 4th of July and we were perusing Hotwire and went looking at two newer sites for hotels where they don't tell you the name of the hotel until you purchase it. LastMinuteTravel.com and Travelocity's Top Secret Hotels.

It turns out that LastMinuteTravel.com lists the number of hotel rooms the hotel has available. A quick Google search indicated the hotel we were going to "steal" was the Westin on N. Michigan Ave. They show 521 rooms. We were right! We think we're so smart.
