Actually I've found that very tactic might make hotwire my preferred choice this time. When I was searching HW for all 3 nights I couldn't find anything in Grand Prairie in my price range (really like to stay under $45 w/out taxes). So I searched HW for Wed-Thur only and there were a lot more choices in Grand Prairie, I'm particularly interested in the 2* with free breakfast and a pool for $37. I'm a little nervous about this because there is no history as to what hotel chain this could be, but I am okay with LaQuinta, Comfort Inn, or Microtel so I think it may be one of those. -- Any ideas?? When I search for Friday night only I was back to the original HW choices so we've decided that we're okay with switching hotels for the last night, hey we're flexible that's why we use these websites. HW was my first choice anyway as I need 2 rooms for 4 adults and 2 children (so 2 beds is preferred), but I was willing to risk it on PL for the right price (kids can always bring a sleeping bag!) Thanks for the advice, anything else you have to offer will be valued. I'll post my info on the appropriate site and use the link to make the purchase!!
