Re: Championship Event 2004 - Rate your hotels!!
Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)
The Omni, Atlanta
Price per room: If known.
I am not sure.
Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?
I am not sure about the internet access (it wasn't my biggest concern) but Breakfast had to be bought. There were alot of good places to eat downstairs. However, if you were like me and am used to staying at more "upscale" places, the hotel was disappointing. There was no indoor pool that I am aware of (though I heard a rumor there was and you had to be 21 to get to it) and it was too blasted cold to get into the other one. Cramming six guys and two girls into that small lil hot tub proved to be...interesting. The postion of the pool was horrible (who puts a pool on a roof!?) and the wind created problems. Unless you were of drinking age, there was not much you could do within the hotel itself. They split the team up over many floors (though we all stayed in the North Tower) and no one had a balcony (and even if we had one, our team said we weren't allowed to use them due to someone falling off one a couple years ago.)
Suprise Charges: If any.
None that I am aware of but I remembered seeing something about a tax.
Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?
Walk...except to get to and from the airport, and then we took the Marta System.
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
Super Close
Any additional Comments?
Next year, they need to figure out something better to do in the hotels. Havn't these people heard of an arcade?
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year?
Guess so. I enjoyed the hotel, even if it had its problems
Would you stay at the same hotel Next year?
Sure, why not. Least I wasn't bitten by a spider or anything
And just for fun, What floor did you stay on?
22nd floor baby!
