I'm thinking about doing the Wentworth by the Sea in NH over 4th of July, but if anyone has any additional insight, or has otherwise already examined this, your help is appreciated. Many thanks.
I think your best approach would be to use the cert when and where you want to. Going to a hotel just because they usually have high rack rates and thus giving the appearance of a good value doesn't seem the best way to go about looking for a hotel.
