Most of the major chains give you until 4 p.m. or 6 p.m. that day to cancel.

You have to be real careful and lucky about this. A lot of inns put the 24 hour cancellation policy in very fine print. It does not matter what chain, each hotel is different even if they are part of the same chain.

The Comfort Inn at Greenville cut me a break last year on Friday. They have the 24 hour policy, but because they were not sold out they did not charge me. Kudos to them.
