Re: Championship Event 2004 - Rate your hotels!!

Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)
Embassy Suites-Downtown Atlanta
You know that hotel right next to Centennial Park, yea that was it, the really nice looking one

Price per room: If known.

um......don't know exact, but expensive

Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?

Internet was $10 for 24 hours, free breakfast (good food too) but we had to make them open earlier (6AM) so we could get all the team out on time
They had some manager's cocktail hour one night, free drinks (both for adults and underage) they had little sitting areas on each floor, 2nd floor roof pool, microwave, minifridge, two beds in one room (size=double) and a pull out queen size couch

Suprise Charges: If any.
yea...money gone from some team member's wallets among other stuff moved and gone through

Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?
walk, RIGHT there

Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
about 45 second walk to CNN center, about 8 minutes to Hard Rock, Hooters, etc

Any additional Comments?
Hotel security was all over us at 12, when all we did was sit there and talk quietly, although there might have been others, but not sure. Service was good expect thier refusal to give us extra blankets, pillows and towels because "enough were supplied for 2 people, which the room is meant for, and they only have the inventory for"
No fan in the bathroom, so when you take a shower, it just lingers in the room, kinda wierd


Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year?

Um... unsure, i'm pretty sure we're the only team with a bad experience, so yes, go ahead, its really nice


Would you stay at the same hotel Next year?
nope

And just for fun, What floor did you stay on?
5th
