bluepig Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 One add: Uh oh. One significant DOWNSIDE of this hotel is that it's a little TOO close to the airport. While most other hotels in the area have free parking, this hotel charges $30 for parking. Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Congratulations on your success! Glad to see this hotel will work well for your plans and that you're looking forward to heading back to your old neighborhood(s).If you don't need the car for your entire stay you may look into perhaps just renting a car for one 24 hour period that you'll need it... either returning to the airport the morning of the rental and returning at nite that same day (thus avoiding the parking charge) OR see if there is a rental agency at the hotel. While renting directly from the hotel rental agency may cost you a little more, sometimes (you'll have to ask) there is no charge for parking OR you may be able to just rent for the one day that you need (same principle as above)Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.

bluepig Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Good news - enjoyed my stay this past weekend. The parking concern that I had is not an issue -- parking is free when you are staying at the hotel and NOT leaving your car to fly elsewhere. The hotel room was nice - no issues. The hotel is pretty large and therefore a bit of a maze to walk the halls to get from the lobby to my room, inevitably at the far end of the top floor from the elevators. I'd stay again.
