Found a way to get a free night in Rome by asking a simple question

Back in 2019, I was booking a hostel in Rome for 5 nights and noticed the price per night dropped after 6 nights. I called and asked if they'd give me the 6-night rate for my 5-night stay, and they just gave me the 6th night for free. Do you think hotels are still open to those kind of deals these days?

Always pays to ask, that's how life works.

Read an article about how people who ask for raises get them way more often. Honestly it's just about getting over the fear of hearing no. Worst they can say is not right now.

Asked a hotel in Barcelona last summer if they could match a lower rate I found on a different site. The guy at the front desk actually gave me a 15% discount and threw in free breakfast for two days. Also tried the same thing with a rental car company in Ireland. Just asked if they could do any better on the price and they knocked 30 bucks off the total. You never know what they'll say until you try.
