Now that I know I'm going for sure, I should have booked the cheaper rate; I probably would have got airline miles too...
IMO, worth the $10 more than to commit to something you aren't 100% sure about. The $139/night I saw was Great Rates Great Dates.. was this the same JPL promo you're talking about?
