I probably spend 10-12 weeks a year on the road. Most places I stay are rural or semi-rural so the rest of U.S. rates usually are accepted, i.e., Best Western, Holiday Inn Express, Hampton Inn, Comfort Inn and Suites, etc. What is it, 87 a night? From what I have read those rates won't be changing. However, when I travel to a Metro Area, I'll have to find cheaper hotels, no more Embassy Suites, Hilton, Sheraton, etc., as they will be removed from the rate calculations. I always have a government car, so I'll drive a bit more from the hotel to where I am working. As long as they don't cut our daily per diem
I hope the per diem doesn't change. What few times I did travel I would find cheap places to eat and spend the unused per diem for beer.
