Chicago for the holidays

Thinking about a trip to Chicago for New Years.. prices are quite good for NYE. Hotwire is in the $110s for the 30th and 31st but Lastminutetravel.com has a hotel, I think it's the Wyndham for $78 (4 stars ) and the James for $95ish (4.5) stars...

Keep in mind they are a foreign company, my credit card company would not accept their charges no my card. Jen's would though SWEET!
