This deal is a different product — 1 nights, non-refundable, priced 60 days ahead — and the claim above compares it with 89 comparable San Jose hotels priced for the same stay when we published, not with these one-night rates. On the last sweep, among the 89 comparable hotels, this room was 6th cheapest.
