Totally Rad: Florida's Postcard Inn Gets Even Cheaper

We already loved the Gidget look of The Postcard Inn when it reopened last October. Now, with slush lining the NYC streets, and cheap-as-chips rates courtesy of Travelzoo, it looks even more seductive. The ’Zoo alerted us to savings of 60% off regular rates—$79 a night—at the boho-budget hotel, for travel dates through March 4, and again from April 11–23.

But if you prefer to hit up Florida with the frat boys, The Postcard Inn is still pretty cheap during the Spring Break high season too. From March 5–April 10, rooms start at $119 a night. Much cheaper than buying a bunch of paint and recreating the hotel’s rad surf’s-up mural in your apartment! To score these discounts, you must book by next Monday, February 15, and use the Travelzoo promo code TZOO.
