LRRH Lodging in Logan

[yellow]

OK ladies, I've been in touch with a few of you so you know that I've been working on this a little bit.

We didn't meet the minimum number of rooms for the discount at Crystal Inn in Logan. So I think now those of you coming to UT for the ride can decide if you all want to stay together in one h/motel or just make reservations wherever. In any event, I didn't find us any sort of group thing at any other h/motel, so us girls are on our own.

Lifesgreat and her buddy are staying at the Super 8. Prolly the cheapest of the chains, rated one diamond by AAA. Their rates for 2 beds appear to range from $55 for 2 doubles to $60 for 2 queen beds. The reservation # is 800-800-8000. Website: http://www.super8.com/Super8/control/home?pop=no

The Best Western chain has two properties in town, the Weston Inn (a "hotel") and the Baugh Motel. Both are rated 3 diamonds by AAA. The Weston posts an "internet special" of $60.99 for 2 queens. I'm sure they would honor this if you called and asked for it also. (As an aside, I found that places that I called quoted prices the same as or lower than published on the 'net, which is why I suspect the "internet specials" really aren't just for those booking online.) And caligurl!...the Weston apparently allows pets! Reservations for either one can be made at 1-888-829-0022. Websites are here:Weston Inn and Baugh Motel

Finally, the Crystal Inn offers 2 queens for $79. It's a hotel (not motel), rated 3 diamonds by AAA. Reservation number is 1-800-280-0707 and website is http://www.crystalinns.com/logan.html.

I will NOT be staying in Logan on Fri night with y'all (I don't think SadieKate will either since she's doing double duty while in UT). Re: Sat night, it sounds like some gals want to stay in Logan and others may want to come to Salt Lake for the big whoop-de-do nightlife (=3.2% beer, but at least it's tasty). I'd recommend something close-ish to downtown or the airport. Good, reasonably priced downtown choices include the Best Western Garden Inn, the Crystal Inn downtown, and the Radisson downtown.

Sorry I couldn't score us a great deal. So.....I think it's up to y'all now to decide where you want to stay and if you all want to be together. I think that next year the club will prolly reserve a block of rooms.

The gal from the Crystal Inn in Logan just called me back and said that even though we didn't meet the minimum, she'd still honor the $72/rate as long as you book by March 15.

I am going to let the ride director know so she can spread the word as well. If you book at the Crystal Inn, just tell them you are with the Bonneville Bike Touring Club ride.

As far as customer service goes, the folks at Crystal Inn have been the most open to working with me. And I'm a big believer in good customer service.

This is so nice of you! Thanks, yellow.

And, you are correct. I will have double-duty in SLC so I will be staying at Hotel MIL.

Thanks yellow for the info re Crystal Inn. I will give them a call today.

Who else is staying in Logan?

Since I'm coming down from the north, I plan on staying in Logan. I'll call first of the week to make my reservation. Took a quick look at the Cyrstal Inn site and it looks like a nice place. I took special note of the hot breakfast bar for pre ride, and the hot tub for post ride! Bikerhen

Hey Bikerhen are you going to stay there for the night after the ride as well?
