NEED A HOTEL WHILE YOU'RE HERE?

We have reserved a block of 12 rooms at a discounted rate for the Class of 1969 at the Homewood Suites on Lane Avenue.

Visit the Homewood Suites Lane Avenue Web site here. The hotel opened in the fall of 2013.

The discounted rates are in effect for July 2 - 6. If you need a room for a longer period, they are likely to extend the discount for the full time.

TWO TYPES OF SUITES

1. KING BED STUDIO SUITE ($149/night) : This one-room suite has a king bed, a fully equipped kitchen, and a lovely bath! There is a sleeper sofa in the living area.

2. KING BED SHOTGUN STUDIO SUITE ($159/night) : This suite has separate living room/kitchen and bedroom areas, as well as a lovely bathroom. There is a sleeper sofa in the living area. There are (2) 32" TVs: one in the living area and one in the bedroom.

Both suites are spacious and beautiful, with lovely kitchens that feature cooktops, refrigerators, microwaves, and dishes, pots, pans, etc. One 32" TV. Very comfy for a several-night stay.

HOTEL AMENITIES

The hotel has an indoor pool, a workout room, a complimentary full breakfast buffet, and a parking garage.

The most important amenity, it seems to me, is CONVENIENCE! It is dangerously close to Tommy's Pizza and Graeter's ice cream, too! It's also within walking distance of several popular restaurants and many great stores along Lane Avenue.
