[quote=JABAROOTOO ,32677]Bargaining leverage would depend on many factorsFirstly will they take a foreigner?Location, convenience and condition of hotelDemand in high/low seasonsCompetition (how many other to choose fromYour budget and your timeSpecial EventsAll these influence what you can expect in way of discounts but I have seldom had much trouble finding somewhere and getting a discount, sometimes up to 40/50% but remember there are many that are a good deal anyway and will not budge on price and not worth your while to bargain. Example Lanzhou Y98 for three share, western style bathroom, no a/c but did not need it, quiet, everthing worked, opposite the train station and close to bus.Couldn't do better than that and they certainly would not discount.I've paid more for plusher places but this was great value.[/quote]
