Ok so I called a bunch of hotels last week and Red Roof Inn was the cheapest.....They gave me a rate of $149... Fh found them online for even less on a website.....$125 So I told FH to call and talk them down to this price and this way we could get something else off our list, while making it a little easier on out OOT guests.....
So last night FH called and spoke with the same guy I talked too(I really don't think this guy knew what he was doing)....
So we got the price at 130.99, fine....But then I got on the phone and he never took our phone number down, when I asked him for the cards with the rates and directions to put in hte invitations he didn't know what I was talking about. And I asked if he was sending my a contract or something and he said no.
He then told me he didn't normally do this and another department does so I asked to speak with them. But he wouldn't put me though to anyone and was like yelling at I think other works while on the phone with me....
SO ANYWAY.....I don't trust him and don't know if I should call someone else in hte same hotel or call a different hotel all together.....
WHAT A PAIN!!!!
Thanks for listening!!!!!!

Re: RED ROOF INN (a little long)
Call them again at very least and make sure you get to the right department.
For mine I got a room rate of $149 but my earlybird friends called and found they were booking rooms at $135. I was pissed that the going rate was cheaper then my room rate. But then I discussed it with the sales office and I understand. Most of your guests will book in the last month. If you book any hotel in advance it is less money then close up. So while the rooms may be going for $135 now, when most of my guests are booking in May/June they will be about $180 estimated. So really if the price online is different then your room rate, it doesn't mean you are getting a bad deal.

Re: RED ROOF INN (a little long)
I want to call and speak with someone else but he always answers the phone and I feel like he's not going to put me though.....I asked him to do that last night and he wouldn't......It was sooo Shady for some reason....
I was thinking of actually going there one morning since it's right over here by my job and speak with a manager.

Re: RED ROOF INN (a little long)
When I called them to find out rates the person did not even know what I was talking about when I said I wanted to block rooms from a wedding. She kept trying to have me actually book the rooms and acted like I was crazy when I did not know exactly how many rooms I needed and if I needed a queen sized bed or two double beds. She just wasn't getting it!! When she put me on hold for the fourth time I just hung up.
