Kavey

I got a note back from Holiday Inn in response to my email. I had asked if they could do a better rate for me, and mentioned that a friend had advised me that they'd gotten a great rate for an upcoming December visit.

She's asked if I could give my friend's name so she could check the rate and see if she could match it.

Would you be willing to email me your full name for this purpose?

Please feel free to say no!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a truly sweet (and smart) Fodorite!!! Have a great one, Kavey!

Kavey

Thanks ladies, I had a great day.

Lisa I sent an email back to the hotel letting them know your name and all the details.

Then I told her about my job etc and I asked if she could tell me any groups I might fall into to get a discount, lets see where it goes.

Now to find affordable car hire - gonna check out the recommendations in that thread I started.

Bummer. I do remember there was a Best Western we looked at that was quite reasonable too, although guesthouses will probably be the least expensive option.

Kavey, I call it potato, you call it potahto, I call it tomato, you call it tomahto, I call it Mombo, you call it Little Mombahto ... but lets not call the whole thing off.
