I'm so sorry, Seraph.

*hugs* sorry no advice, I'm so sorry to hear that

[Seraph]

Thanks guys. Tomorrow's the big news on whether she'll be in treatment all weekend or not...and then we'll be seeing whether we'll be making a one day trip or day and a half.

:hugs: I hope everything will turn out ok.

Sending hugs - hopefully things will go OK for you.

In addition to the other suggestions, if you're a Costco member, check their discounts. I booked a cruise last year on Costcotravel.com, and just a few weeks ago got good discounts on a Best Western property through that same website.

Online sites like priceline.com, hotwire.com, etc. are good. Kayak.com is great at comparison rates against all those sites for hotels (even flights and rental cars too). It doesn't hurt to ask for a discount, especially in your case. As long as you're nice it'll be easy to sweet talk the front desk clerk into a discount for you. Are there any other discounts you may have? Maybe some sort of membership for an organization (i.e. Moose Lodge, etc)?

[Seraph]

Well, got the call today, she is doing treatments over the weekend, so we're gonna try for next weekend.

Thanks again all, really appreciate the advice.

One hotel I worked at offered a discount for Costco too. Something else to keep in mind.

Just ask. It doesn't hurt. We don't have bereavement rates or anything of the sort at my motel, but if someone's really polite about it, I've cut some really incredible deals in the past for guests.
