I found out what was up with the prices, the website was still on it's winter rates, which has finally switched over to the summer rates. You will find the group rates are much better than the website rates.

The best I could do was $129.00 a night. That seems reasonable to me. Sounds like you got a deal Steve.

I'm just excited that I'm finally going to get to one of these.

You will find that the normal summer rates are $179/$189/$199 so $129 is a deal! :D

Nothing official as only a couple guys mentioned it. It might be a good idea to start a thread and see if a group would want to make the trek down there.

Maybe they think we're going to be tossing the couches out of the hotel windows or something.
