When valuing a hotel stay I always ask if I would pay that rate or not. It's all fine to say a hotel is $1000 a night, but what is the most you'd pay. My normal limit is $250 per night. And I can count on one hand the times I've paid over $200 a night.

I paid $242 this weekend per night, but used a Bogo for a net price of $121 per night. I can't logically think that $600 for a standard room would make sense for me. I'm too frugal, I guess.
