However, my Hotel does not have a Hot tub, so let me know if your hotel has a good one .

I just did the same thing (July 18-23) for $77.34/nite + $69.60 tax for a total of $456.30
Bill -- what class are you going to? Anybody else staying there?

Can't wait... :anamatedbanana

Re: Places to stay

That sounds great! How many people do we have so far? I'm one for July 19th.

How did you talk them down to 90$?

You should always be able to cancel your res and rebook at the lower rate.

I've left messages for the manager to call me back so that we can get that group rate and get issued a code which I will post when we get it.
Is the $89 price good if we don't get the group rate? Or does it bounce all the way to $119?

Basically, they had commercials that average people became experts, excellent athletes, etc, simply because they stayed in one the previous night.

Hence why on a lot of responses on these forums, some people will tack on 'However, I did not stay in a holiday inn express last night', meaning that they are not experts in the topic, as someone who Did stay there, would be.

Confused yet? "rlol"
You can find the commercials on youtube. They're decently funny.
OK -- thanks. I thought it was some kind of gun or perhaps LEO thing (like wearing a hat). Didn't realize it referenced a TV commercial. I don't remember seeing those.
Reviewed the youtube commercials. They also have "rejected" HIE commercials. Can't describe it here, but the one with the guy who
"wasn't" an OB-GYN practically had me on the floor.
