Right now they are offering this rate to Florida, Georgia, Louisana, Mississippi and Alabama residents AND there's a post on the USF/IOA board where a DISer got this rate by having the Loews card. To get the card, which is free CLICK HERE (http://www.loewshotels.com/loewsfirst.asp)

Also, the Hard Rock is being offered at $99 a night. These rooms are being booked as available, the agent I spoke to did not see an end date as of today, so I was able to book the first week in January.

And don't forget, onsite hotels at USF offers Express Access which I found pheNOMenal back in May. You just show your card key and they let you go through the express line. My longest wait was 5 minutes!

Wow, great rates. Wish I were going, too. Thanks for posting, tho. I see quikbook.com now offers the Hard Rock hotel in their Orlando hotel lineup. The price is $l29, not too bad if you can't get ent. rate or these other deals.

You just have to be a resident of a state that Robinrs listed above! It's a great deal, I originally had HRH for $149. a night this weekend & changed it to PBH for $129.00!!

Claudine,

If you have the Loews card, try for the rate on the Loews rate. If not, click on the link I gave to get one. It entitles you to some cool extras even if you don't get the rate, such as their signature in-room treats and upgrades.

Also note that the agents are being VERY flexible during these difficult times. Try for whatever rate you're aware of, and if you don't get the answers you like, call back and speak to someone else until you do!

Universal's site is still quoting the Portofino for almost $300 a night for my dates. I consider my deal incredible!
