That moment when you don't know if 12pm is midnight or noon and google to find out and discover there is no actual consensus on the answer.

Just click on the specific Hol Inn link provided in post #2 . I did and it self-inserts whatever code is needed to get a room there during the Chicago Seminars dates. Regular ihg.com site doesn't show availability. I just reserved a room.

In the past, as I recall, there was a discount on registration for couples. Is that the case this year? I don't see anything related to this on the Eventbrite site.

Your recollection is incorrect. Sorry, no discounts.
