  1. Follow up as promised:

     

    THE GOOD

    • very clean
    • good location near grocery, gas, Walmart, McDonalds
    • very hot water
    • friendly staff
    • realitively quiet

    THE BAD

    • old, tube, 27" TV's
    • small double beds
    • too soft matresses
    • tiny bathroom
    • very low water pressure
    • minimal breakfast, pastries only, nothing hot
    • other end of town from battlefield
    • IT'S A MOTEL

    If you can get it at a good price and can live with the basics, not too bad.  I think I would have made a different choice though. 

     

  2. Not a lot of information regarding Gettysburg on this forum, so here's a new one.

     

    Econo Lodge

    2*

    Free Breakfast

     

    I haven't stayed in a motel in over 30 years; in fact I've avoided them like the plague.  Chose this over a similarly priced 3* due to Hotwire Rating 90% vs 75% - I thought no way would a motel be rated 90%.  Reviews all say how clean the place is but the breakfast is minimal, we'll see. I will post after our stay.

  3. Just booked through Better Bidding. Last minute weekend getaway; Sept 14-15, 2 adults, 2 kids, 1 room. $59.00 for the night. Great hotel, great location.

  4. To follow up on the Seneca. Was upgraded to a 2 queen Presidential Suite simply by joining their online VIP club. The room was on the top floor and was massive! The kids are now spoiled to anything less - I'm in for trouble. The furniture was a bit saggy in the living room, but everywhere else was fine. The breakfast (which we got to go) was big enough to share. The staff and location were top notch. I will be looking for this hotel again!

  5. Took a look around at some of the options on Hotels.com and found the Seneca Hotel on Chestnut next to the Hancock Tower for $165/night for a basic 2 doubles room. Went to Senecahotel.com and booked a 2 Queen deluxe suite with full kitchen for $160/night including breakfast for 4 each morning. I read that they also have priority seating arranged at Giordanos allowing you to jump to the head of the line.

    The only question I have is - Where is the cheapest, close parking? We tend to park the car and walk or taxi everywhere.

    Thanks for everything AaronJB, I'll follow up on our experience when we return.

  6. Hello all,

    I'm guessing Hotel 71 on E Wacker; any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance

  7. Just booked (through the HOTWIRE link on this site) the Holiday Inn Express Downtown Indy for 7/3-5/2010 for $55 per night; 2 adults, 2 kids. Nice, basic hotel across from Lucas Oil Stadium, stayed here before. If you're a light sleeper, ask for an even numbered room, less traffic noise.

    Amenities:

    Comp b-fast, Fitness ctr, business ctr, Pool(s), laundry, high-speed internet, golf nearby, tennis nearby

    great place to stay to be close to the fireworks!
