I think a fair number of patient listeners heard me go on at length
about my stay at the Crowne Plaza. Like Barry, I too will probably
stay somewhere else next time! I got a refund on my first night's
stay, so I was reasonably happy with that. But the breakfast needs a
revamp, and the standard of banquet food left a bit to be desired.
But I still had a great time!
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the very generous
people who gave me a lift (ride) to Hara and back, and Dave K3LP who
took me to the airport. I didn't see the point in hiring a car so I
could leave it in various car parks round Dayton all weekend. I also
enjoyed the bus ride a few times too!

Quoting Barry <w2up@comcast.net>:
Like the Hara arena, I think the Crowne Plaza has deteriorated over the
years. I'll stay elsewhere next time.

Funny. The note with the form was a garbled mess - they didn't even
get the Hamvention's name right - but when I asked at the desk,
they readily came up with another copy and waited while I filled it
out. I'm going to get a reservation number, though, to be sure.

I got an offer under my door during the Hamvention for 2014 at
$139/night. I filled out the form and got a note the next day saying
that my room was reserved. No reservation number yet, and the whole
thing was pretty garbled, so I will be following up in a few days, but
they obviously intended to try to nail us down. I was in a club floor
room reserved as part of the NODXA/Janeen Hire block, so maybe this deal
was just offered to us (?)

When is the Crowne Plaza going to start taking reservations for 2014?
