NYC 3* is Astor on the Park. I didn't get the $10 deal but I got $58/night for 9/18-9/20 weekend. That's still an amazing deal for nyc with private bath! The reviews on tripadvisor are favorable and it's just a place to crash for the night. I went to Columbia for undergrad so I'll be back in the UWS again!

Looking at that Budapest Hilton for Aug 9,
Location and hotel look very good.
could be a nice overnight trip from the IC Vienna.

But can't get just Aug 9 at $10.
Anybody find a workaround to just get the one night?

edit: Nevermind, I hadn't paid attention to the asterisks...
two night min is intentional, not a booking "problem".

Really not bad, 2 nights for $120,
but I can also just stay put in Vienna cheaper....

I just booked at $20 per night using the $10 link for August 15-18. Odd.

I'd say advertising $10 per night is a scam if there is a 2 night minimum and the second night is full price. In the same manner they could offer FREE NIGHTS (have to buy the second one for $1K)

You're overreacting and you're wrong. Did you even read the post immediately before yours? I got the same room that went for $10 at a $20 per night rate, and whenever I found the $10 rate (or less, sometimes $8) the adjacent nights were no more than $20.

Could you please try booking Brussels hotel before implying I'm wrong? Thanks.

I cannot duplicate that today, but it is very interesting,
and indicates that constant vigilence is necessary with LMT.

Just the other day, I did a test booking,
and a giant clock appeared on my screen
and started counting down, ticking loudly.

ATL is coming up at $0.00 for 7/30-8/1.

I haven't tried booking because I won't be able to use it.

Yep, I see that too.

That price is hard to beat.
Even so, I am not going to ATL tomorrow.

LMT continues to fascinate me.
But then I am easily amused.
