Break it down into its component parts.

Tri-va-go.

Tri- 3
va- Spanish for "go"
go- go

So it's "3-go-go" or what I suspect they were going for was "3 words for go" or "go go go" except they only used two words for "go."

Maroons!

...I think it's because he's a complete idiot.

He seems to think hotels have a wide variety of prices "...for the exact same room." This means that he has some inside access to each hotels' price list and will sell you that info...or....he has no idea what the phrase "exact same room" means. I go with the latter.

Based on too much exposure to television advertising I have concluded that the generational tendency toward illiteracy is featured daily on N.A. television. Don't get me started....

Apparently they didn't get the memo when Miami Vice went off the air.
