Flying SAN-ORD-FRA on Saturday, 2/16, I hope, fingers crossed. We SAN folk just don't GET weather.

Backup plan is to reserve airport hotel for Sat night. Would prefer something with a shuttle, something around $100, something SPG, and most importantly, something with a flexible cancellation policy. Am seeing notes of must be over 21, ID required. Are these hotels as unpleasant as JFK airport hotels? I'm old enough to value comfort over cost - to a point.

Or should I just Priceline it, hope I don't need it and consider it part of the cost of the trip?
