aandrseidl Posted February 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 29, 2016 We are driving down to Miami - will more than likely be coming down I95 and trying to figure out if we should book a hotel room in advance or wing it. It will be during spring break - would need a room on the 25th of March. Thoughts? We have done this in the past, just not during spring break. Thanks!

Clarea Posted February 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 29, 2016 It's a personal thing. I would rather have something worked out in advance, so I know the quality of the hotel and the price I'm going to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgharea Posted February 29, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 29, 2016 If you could pre-book with a no cancellation fee then you could view your options once there without penalty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted February 29, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I agree about booking something you can cancel & then seeing what you can get. Since you are not picky try Hotwire or Priceline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capriccio Posted February 29, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 29, 2016 In addition to that week (Easter week) being spring break for many schools, the 25th is Good Friday and the beginning of Easter weekend. It's hard to think of a busier weekend. Reserve something now that you can cancel if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted February 29, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Book a room. As mentioned you can cancel it. Just book one that allows you to cancel it that day. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCEMT Posted March 3, 2016 #7 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I would book a room for sure, and like the others have said with the option to cancel before you get there. I have a cool app on my smart phone called Hotel tonight, and it lists the hotels available and the prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitsmom Posted March 3, 2016 #8 Share Posted March 3, 2016 It's a personal thing. I would rather have something worked out in advance, so I know the quality of the hotel and the price I'm going to pay. Me too! I want to know that I have a room in the hotel that I want. I did the "wing it" once and I will NEVER - EVER do that again! No vacancy everywhere that I would feel comfortable staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueHerons Posted March 4, 2016 #9 Share Posted March 4, 2016 Nah, just wing it. Let us know how sleeping in your car worked out for you. Just kidding, don't even think about not booking something. That is one of the busiest weekends of the year here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
