The Motel 6 has an Internet Rate of $43.99 per night. I looked into 3 nights, Friday, Saturday, & Sunday. The total price for the 3 nights with tax was $143.85.
The gal at the reservation dept told me this is the same price for people over 60 years old, with an AARP card (they said you don't have to do it over the Internet to get this price).
We didn't make reservations, because we and our friends would need 3 rooms and are interested in finding out about a group rate. When I called, the group dept. was closed, so the gal I spoke with couldn't give me any rates, but she did think that 5 rooms constitute a group, although the group dept. would have to confirm that.
I spoke with the group dept. at Motel 6 today. It turns out the Internet rate is a better deal than the group rate, so we will be making our reservations online.
Thanks for checking, Renee! You're awesome!
Woot! Woot! Woot!
The Galena 5 Gang now has reservations at the Motel 6 for Friday, May 13th, checking out on Monday, May 16th.
Maybe this might help someone: We needed 3 rooms, 2 doubles & a single. There is no way to do that online, so I called the hotel directly & made the reservations. She gave me the internet rate.
Double, 2 beds, non smoking: $143.85, including all taxes (the online rate is $43.69 plus tax per night)
Single, non smoking (I told her it didn't matter whether 1 or 2 beds, since it's for 1 person) $124.24 including all taxes.
We will be there!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
My arm band has arrived.
