I don't believe that's going to be true much longer.

IBTD.

EVERYONE in the
US either books on-line, or searches on-line, nowadays.

ah. another generalization.

You can always, always, ALWAYS drive a better price by talking to the
manager or owner, than you can get on-line, because he (like me) would
much rather give YOU the 15% that we have to pay the on-line booking
agencies.

And if they act like they don't know what you're talking about when you
call, they're lying, stupid, or both. (Or you're speaking with a
part-time clerk. Ask for the manager/owner.)

nice. I'd like to not have to bother a manager or owner. Give the person
working this position the right to decide on that. And I like fair prices
and don't like to negotiate that much on any "deals". The price with the
deals deducted is the regular going rate. The listed price is the stupid.
