Oooh, thanks for the reminder! I forgot about getting a room. It's just so much more convenient with a room on-site.

EDIT: I just called, and they said there is only 1 room left that's set aside for us, with 1 double bed, non-smoking, for $109. I told the guy it was supposed to be $89 and of course he had no info on this because he was just part of the corporate reservation line. Can you give them a call and find out what's going on?

Dana,

I have a few people who said that when they call in, they are being told that here is only 1 room left in the block, and that it is $140 per night. Is there a miscommunication somewhere in the chain?

Would you please let me know how to proceed?

Thanks!

I have just talked with reservations. The block is in the system. If they are not mentioning that they are coming in with FITES the rate would be $140.00. I also looked over the contract and your cut off date is 7/29/06. After that date the rate of $89.00 is no longer available. If you need anything else please let me know.

Thanks,

Dana

wOOT..got the better rate. Online they are quoting 125/room.

Yes, I did mention FITES, and the dude told me $109. I will call again...

Ok, so I called again and just like last time, they transferred me to their corporate reservation call center, where they again told me they were showing $125 and that our pricing must not have been updated in the system to show $89. After about 5 minutes of being on hold while the guy was supposed to be looking up something, the cell phone dropped the call. I really don't think he was coming back anyways....

So I called again and this time someone from the actual Holiday Inn in Mech-burg did the reservation and everything was 100% cool. She even asked me what our quoted rate was. So, I'm taken care of, but I just wanted y'all to know in case you run into any similar problems. Insist on making the reservation with the hotel itself, not their corporate reservations line.

I am REALLY sorry that everyone is having these problems. I will be taking it up with the hotel manager tomorrow!

BTW, I called the hotel directly with my reservation.

I booked a room a couple weeks ago. At first, I called and I guess I was transfered. I was on hold for almost 10min and I just hung up. When I called back, it seemed like I was talking to someone at the hotel and it went fine. I got the room for Friday too so we can be up bright and early for the start of the lan.

I just got mine, no problems what so ever.

Yes, I only seemed to have issue when they transferred me. When they did the reservation themselves there was no problem whatsoever.
