$99 is about the rate we have paid at the IAH Sheraton for past CO DOs. Although some have be able to get better than $99 at the IAH Sheraton with some other codes.
If they do get €99 for the Sheraton FRA, then I agree it will be a good rate, since their published rack rate for that night is €208 as of this moment.
On the other hand, $99 is good, but not great for IAH IMO. The Houston Marriott North at Greenspoint is only $79/night for the two nights we are there. If that is their published rate, then I would bet for a group booking, we could get it down to the $60-65 range, which would be truly great. That Marriott is only 15 minutes to IAH.
