Duranza & AsiaTraveler, true, the $50 off a hotel for 175 MCR deal is rarely a good deal. If U wanna look, enter "demo" as both username & password. Many Holiday Inns, Best Westerns & some indies & other chains participate, but the rates are ineligible to earn PC/ BW points. Also, AAA rates are often almost as cheap & do earn points.
However, sometimes that Website has a bargain rate. I wonder if it can help us claim a Best Rate Guarantee??
