That being said, booking at the last minute can end up being a good move. Some places lower their rates a day or two before check-in to fill rooms that would otherwise stay empty.
The more flexible your dates, the better your savings. Experiment with different time frames to discover what deals pop up. Prices are usually cheaper midweek and outside peak seasons.
