Venice for one cent a [hotel] room error
Quoth the Beeb:

A hotel near Venice has accepted that its rooms were mistakenly advertised online at a mere one-hundredth of a euro instead of up to 150 euros (£129).

Nearly 230 people took advantage of the offer, booking on average more than six nights per person at the Crowne Plaza.

It is 20km from central Venice, one of Italy's main tourist destinations.


Whoopsie.

Good on the hotel for mea-culpaing and honoring the botched prices, though!
