A couple hotels start early - the Double Tree and the Hilton both start around 4:30 am.

That hotel has been going for something like $97+ tax this month on the AAA rate. It does come up about $20-30 cheaper on Hotwire “opaque” bookings, but cash back sites for IHG website bookings and the IHG loyalty program narrow the value gap between the Hotwire “hot rate” bookings and “direct” bookings.
