More on Last Minute Travel.com

This is a GREAT site.  Jen went looking online for hotels in Chicago.. because we go with her kids we really need to have a suite.. a real live suite, not those fake ones like Comfort Suites, with a half wall to make it look like two rooms. 


So she gets on LMT.com and with a little digging finds an Embassy Suites in Downtown Chicago for $120/night LESS than their published rate.   Using LMT's details, you can find out how many rooms, stars and floors a hotel has.  


Go to Google and punch in that info and you can get an educated guess as to what hotel it might be.  We're 2 for 2 or 3 for 3 using LMT and Google.  So we are downtown for $140 a night. We were at $147 but there is another little thing online that says call for a cheaper rate, so she called and got another $7 off a night.  SCHWEET!!!!!!!!
