They used to post available dates quite far in advance. Do they not offer this discount very much anymore? We love this hotel, but not for regular price.
I tend to assume this is a supply and demand thing. They're only going to offer such low rates when they're expecting occupancy to fall below a certain threshold. If they're filling up their rooms satisfactorily already, from a business perspective, why do they need to offer the cheap rates? Of course, that kind of stinks from the cost-conscious consumer perspective.
Not different, but I believe that they do post whenever there is an update, so it's nice to find out on your facebook page though them, if you frequent facebook a lot. I have friended Hojo's on FB, they post some really interesting comments and retro photos, etc.
