ADeMartino, Always happy to answer questions about hotels work. It makes the guests happier and my life easier.
Antares, we will never be upset for a question like that one for the reason I cited. lol. It's a perfectly valid question. Though I do have to say... most hotels will never offer you a discount unless you ask for one because we make more money if you don't get a discount. So if you have something you think might get you a discount (AAA, Military, Seniors, AARP, or even the Entertainment card, etc) please ask. Even a 10% discount (our typical discount, and also includes the 10% discount given to return guests, just mention the promotion when you call or walk in) is STILL better than paying 15-30% commission and we still still make more money with it.
