"This all comes at a time when the economy is in sort of in the tank and union members are losing their jobs. Here are some numbers released today, for example. Manufacturing - the economy has lost 219,000 manufacturing jobs. Service industry - down 359,000 jobs. The goods producing and construction jobs down 338,000. It is hard to get exact numbers, but many of those people are dues-paying union members who are now without work."

With a corporate rate, they're probably paying about $180-200/room night, which is what I pay when I stay at higher-end hotels during conventions and meetings. As a matter of fact, that price range seems to cover a pretty wide range of hotels used for business, whether they're in a big-city high-rise or near a music festival in suburbia.
