Thanks for the feedback. I'll watch my card tonight and see what happens tomorrow. I am glad you said this may happen overnight, because if I don't see a charge by tomorrow, I'll assume I'm in the clear. If I end up calling them back tomorrow to waive any charges, I would also hope they would have the ability to reinstate the original reservation and pricing.
I got a good rate previously, and would most likely take the trip, and enjoy the stay, rather than eat a 1-night cancelation fee.
