Yeah, and people (as usual) complained that they could get much better >
rates outside the IETF block. Can't win that one. Perhaps not (there will always be a Motel 6 or some such down the
road), but that’s not the question & definitely not the
problem. The question is why, when the IETF has essentially promised to
fill the Shangri-La Beijing for the week, is it possible to book a room on the
Shangri-La Web site right now for the entire week of the meeting at less than the IETF rate? Really? I have just tried that, and got the same 1300
RMB with or without the promotion code. Nevertheless, does it not put the lie to the idea that the IETF
is getting a deal (except maybe a bad one)? I can get cheaper rates for the week before or the week
after, but entering 7th-12th of November gives me just the 1300 RMB rate. |
