Check Christmas week and it is likely even less.

Or send the most annoying visiting relative there for the holidays.
If it's the HP by IAH, that looks like the cheapest rate through the rest of the year. I have 2 nights booked right after Christmas, just in case I need them. I also did a 3 night mattress run there earlier. I checked in in person and then checked out on line 3 days later, not bothering to show up anytime during the stay. The holiday period may be different, though ... I don't know.
