What would be the implications of using this code to book at that rate and turning up at the hotel.......
Would there be any comeback?
The main implications would be an extra $153 in your pocket (before tax).
If you are nervous about it, the cancellation policy at this hotel is typically 6:00 PM arrival day. So if you arrive before then and are confronted with a higher rate, you can just cancel and walk away. This should be quite easy to do if you make a reservation at an alternative property as well. Personally, I would just do it and
not discuss it with anyone.
