Nice job bidding!!! We have stayed there before and they let us upgrade to Club level for an extra 20.00 a night. It was worth it to us, because the offered breakfast and evening reception, coffee, soda and such.

I don't know if they still offer that option.

Enjoy the time with your daughter! Seems like just a few years back they were in Kindergarten. <G>

Good luck with the college visit process. The Hyatt's in a very central location, which should be helpful. Additionally, rather than looking at dorms, I'd look at a studio apartment elsewhere in the city, as - at least from what I've seen - dorms have become outrageous.
