instead of everyone calling up every hotel near each school searching for the cheapest one, lets make it easier on us and post our findings here.

So far I have booked a hotel for
Midwestern oct. 12
Sleep Inn
rate: $47.99

Instead of making a thread for every school let's just use kayak.com

Internet is a very good place to find cheap hotel rooms. We get wide range of choices and we can choose the best according our comfort. All those hotels offer very good service and all the basic facilities required. If proper steps are followed, a lot of money can be saved from accommodation.

I've never used kayak before-- will have to try that sometime. However I wanted to add that another good tool is priceline.com's Name Your Own Price feature. It lets you book a hotel for cheap, but the catch is you don't know which hotel you booked until you have already paid. I got a $124 hotel room for $69 recently.

hi guys,

could anyone tell me the cheapest hotel by temple?? i was just invited for an interview a few days ago and the interview is next week! i'm definitely going to be spending big bucks on the flight since it's such short notice so i'd like to at least save as much as possible on the hotel.

thanks!

Here's a forum that will let you see which hotels are in priceline's system in which area, their rankings and what people have won a bid at. It also has data for flights and rental cars. Very helpful site!

i just use priceline.com to bid on a hotel room.

1) select city
2) select area in city where you want hotel
3) select star rating hotel you want and bid amount
4) website searches and finds a random hotel for you

if you're lucky you can get a 3-4 star for around 30-35$. or if you dont care about the star rating and just want a 2-star type hotel (best westernn inn, comfort inns, etc.) you make get lucky and get it for 20-25$. usually works best if you are bidding the day before you wanna check in.
