Embassy Suites - what a nice surprise...

I admit it, I am a girl who loves luxury, esp. when it's priced nicely. I will rarely (unless I'm uber desperate) stay at anything less than a 3 star hotel, however I am also a bargain hunter. Since I have Hilton honors points, and truthfully am a big fan of their hotels, I always look at their hotels first to see if they have a good deal in the area I want to stay. They usually do and I have stayed at many Homewood Suites, Hilton Garden Inns, and Doubletrees.

This time my search found me an Embassy Suites for only $115 (yay for AAA prices) in Lompoc, CA. Besides being thrilled with the price, I discovered they include a free happy hour (drinks and appetizers) every night and free cook to order (not just your standard complimentary order) breakfast. That means omelettes, quiches, pancakes, etc. Seriously, in this economic market? I am impressed. Embassy Suites, you just earned my business, and a good recommendation!

Add to that, there is a special Hilton promotion right now where you get 1,000 extra honors points for staying at certain Hilton hotels, and this just happens to be one! Right on! I only hope the stay is as nice as I expect!
