Hotel searches
Earlier today I mentioned that I was heading to the Greater Cincinnati region for a Sandals Resorts seminar. The workshop hotel was offering a reduced conference rate of $129.00 per night but my professional development budget is limited so it’s time for plan B.
Plan B was to do a quick search that provided alternate lodging options within a specified distance. I secured a hotel within ½ miles of my morning meeting location at a fraction of the cost.
I gave up the comfort beds, restaurant, cocktail lounge and other amenities but scored a $39.99 a night rate. And they have ESPN on cable in the room so I can watch the Browns & the NFL football Giants tonight. Plus I've got a microwave for the popcorn!
Coaching point: Be flexible! There are multiple options.
Happy travels!
