Anyways I looked it up, most places charge a one or two night non-refundable charge to your card along with the security deposit if you are under 25. So you don't pay for your whole stay until you arrive, which is good for most of us spring breakers because we either A) won't have all the money yet, or B) We won't have collected it from our broke *** friends until probably right before we leave...B being the one that applies to me, I'll probably have the 1,500 for the room for the week...but will my friends have given their share to me, oh, that might take some doing.
