So it might not be anything like those Outer Banks vacation homes, but I like to believe Mr. Shatner did his best.  My only regret is not really studying the areas in DC before I started picking hotel areas on Priceline’s “Name Your Own Price.”  I originally asked for a 4.5 star property at 75 bucks (bite me, I’m cheap) but they denied me.  Much as it hurt me to click on the 3.5 star property option, I did anyways and hit the enter button too fast without even thinking to lower my price.  Was hoping they’d reject me again because 75 bucks for 3.5 stars?  Uh uh.  Shatner probably realized what a dingaling I was to even offer 75 bucks (I should have bid 50 bucks, LOL!) but what do you know, they give me what they call a “4 star hotel.”  Riiiiight.  I’ll have to see about that.

Still, I’m thankful.  I was crazy enough to pay rack rate for another hotel in downtown DC so imagine the savings (now we’ll actually be able to eat instead of starve for 3 days).  Plus I hear they have some of the most fabulous beds and an excellent coffee shop to start our day.
