This shows deals on the rack rate. I looked at downtown Chicago on a weekend and all were in the $200 to $300+ range. </p>
<p>
You can get a room in downtown Chicago for $80 to $150 at a decent hotel (3.5 - 4 star). </p>
<p>
Places like hotwire and priceline constantly have rooms that cheap. Places like betterbidding.com track what hotels are the "blind" hotels listed on both sites and also historical bid price wins on certain dates over the past year. </p>
