Hope you enjoyed your stay (and it was worth the extra $2 :) )

Thanks for the report and for using the 'barn to begin your bidding.

Sorry Colfax! That is adding insult to injury. What happened to the Hilton? That's the one I like the best in Eugene. I think it's the best location of the three.

Yes, the Hilton is right Downtown, very solid and respectable, and walking distance to some good restaurants and Fifth Street Market. Red Lion looks like a housing project on the outside but the rooms really aren't bad and Borders is across the street.

Over the years I've noticed that one hotel in Eugene will come up on Priceline over and over; then for a few months it's the next one's turn.

My stay at the Red Lion wasn't bad at all and I wish the same for your parents. I see they're at the Red Lion tonite!
