Non-Rev,
thanks for your welcome. Thanks also to everyone for all the suggestions. I'm trying to top off the HH points, although this is a more expensive chain of course than Choice or Triprewards that might have locations along Yamato Rd. or 53rd....and if the Doubletree was only asking $67 plus tax last month it's not a bad deal at all.

Does anyone have opinions in general on whether rates are likely to be higher as you go further north into P.B. County towards P.B. itself? I had reasons to stop off in Delray Beach for example so that might have been an alternative to Boca Raton if it isn't hugely more expensive.

thanks!
