Hotels make logical destinations if you're thinking about taking a break from everyday life, unless you live in prison. Escape from your existential Alcatraz with today's Groupon: for $79, you get a one-night stay on a Friday or Saturday at Embassy Suites Dallas (a $179 value), located near the Galleria Mall.

Comfortable, fully stocked suites are ready to accommodate travelers at Embassy Suites Dallas. The hotel, which is situated close to local attractions such as Six Flags and the Dallas Museum of Art, offers guests a realm of amenities to make their stay as convenient as possible. Each suite comes equipped with a coffee maker, two 42-inch flat-screen TVs, and high-speed Internet access. The sleepover includes a free cocktail reception in the evening, and after a night of pacific slumber and ostrich-free nightmares, guests awake to start their day with a full, complimentary breakfast.

To prevent disgruntled visitors from destroying the premises, Embassy Suites also provides free shuttle service within a 3-mile radius, a swimming pool and hot tub, and a fitness center where guests can limber up their suitcase lifters before heading to the airport. Guests wishing to extend their stay can pay $99 for each additional night.
