I feel like someone my age wrote this because hotels are not around $100 anymore. Last concert i went to that was sufficiently far away to justify getting a room for the night, said room was over $200, tiny, and literally the cheapest in the building.
i feel weird. a few years ago i got a room for like 150 in a hcol area, downtown, on a holiday, during a festival, within walking distance of the festival, and i kind of felt like i was robbing the place. they could have charged twice that and gotten away with it. sometimes you just get lucky
It really depends. Holiday Inn Express can run close to 115-125 depending on location and nearby events. And there are certainly a lot of hotels under 100.
But if you’re anywhere near a decent metro under 100 is basically non-existent
Hotwire is still pretty good and you can sometimes keep it around $100. You may also have been dealing with higher pricing due to an event in the area. But you’re also right that everything is more expensive.

maybe in urban areas, but rural hotels can easily still be $90 for a cheap one.

Depends where and when. Wife and I hit up the Niagara Falls casinos in January and rooms are cheap and give you a lot of freebies
