      Imagine paying that, not only to stay in Letterkenny, but to stay on the worst weekend of the year…

      These are the same morons who spent 7k on a lexus with 150hp so I can see their reasoning for the gouging.

      The reviews are terrible regardless of price. Owner sounds like a right dick.

      Is it possible – just possible – that this should actually be 200.00 and is an honest typo?

      EDIT – nope, they’ve dorpped it to 18,000.

      For 20k you’d think they could manage to throw a few sausages and eggs in a pan

      Its probably just easier to raise prices than to remove from booking for a week so their relatives or mates can stay there… or stop rally heads from wrecking the gaff!!

      He’s dropped it again, must have been a Typo. It’s now 12k.

      Businesses that don’t want custom often make their prices so outrageous that it ensures no bookings will occur.

      It can be to stop anymore bookings happening as they are already overwhelmed or simply that they “know” the calibre of the person looking a room that night.

      Happens with football, concerts and festivals but more often Air BnB hosts use this tactic.

      To take the hotel off for a date or list as closed via all the brokers is a ball ache.

      To mark your business sold out may come back to bite you in the ass if tax man is taking notes, so batshit pricing is the easy way to avoid bookings.

      It is an algorithmic price set by a bot that went unchecked. 

      If you have a bot that works as “set the price 10% more expensive that the cheapest one”.

      And then the only hostel left available is the one with the same or similar bot – you will see this. 

      Happens all the time in marketplaces.

      Maybe the planning process should stop events taking place if there is not adequate in place to support visitors coming to the event. I mean it is not like the hospitality industry to take advantage of customers at all. /s

      One of the tricks to keep rooms available for the dates knowing they will be expensive. They know they can get booking for them but this way they are creating demand and panic buy on week leading to it . At that stage they will know what prices are gone up to and list their rooms at the top price range…

      Based on where and when, there must be at least three extra zeros in that price?

      I’d gladly pay 20k to AVOID Letterkenny during the rally weekend

      I live in Letterkenny and am purposely going on holidays during rally weekend. If I was running an Airbnb I would do the same thing, the rally attracts the worst of the worst from all over the country and God only knows the amount of damage some of these “enthusiasts” could do. 

      Imagine the worst people you know, taking the most cocaine they’ve ever taken each trying to impress each other by doing the stupidest/most dangerous/reckless things they can think of.

      Pretty sure that owner has a reputation for being a lunatic.
