Well twenty four years ago we were driving across the US to take a car to my DD on the east coast. We had the alternator go out in Plankinton, SD. We stopped as there was a Super 8 motel there, OK $49 a night right? Not that week upland bird season rate doubled to $98!
I am sure that in other locations similar rate increased are in effect.
Your point?
Hotel prices vary based on demand. Always have.
If you buy an inexpensive RV, travel full time, do your own maintenance and keep the miles traveled low...sure you can do it cheaper than staying at hotels.
If you are regularly staying at $425/n motels, you probably aren't keeping costs under control that way.
Yes, my point is Hotel/motel cost vary by demand or event. In my 50 years of travel for work I have stayed in a nice $25 a night motel, and a Plush NYC hotel during fashion week for $700 a night.
