I should probally post up to the General page, but I'll put it here first.
One way I have found to save money on hotel rooms when racing is by using a Travel Extras MasterCard as my main card. It offers travel rewards on any airline ticket, Alamo rental cars, and our subject, Marriott Hotels. (Fairfield Inn, Residence Inn, Courtyard, ect).
Whenever I have raced at Robeling Road, I have stayed at the Airport Fairfield Inn free by using my points. (even their room with the Jacuzzi in the room, not the bathroom, but the Main Room! is free)
Also, they now offer 'up to 45%' off any of the marriott chain without using points.
Of course, the trick, as with any 'rewards card', is pay the card in-full each month.
I just checked their website. They dont have a direct link to this specific card, but if you email them
[email protected]
(direct merchants credit card bank)
I'm sure they can mail you info.
