Hotel Recommendations

Post by bgsufn »

We are coming into town for the Alumni and Friends weekend in June and wondering about hotels in BG. I am currently looking at the Days Inn, the Quality Inn and the Best Western Falcon Plaza. Do you have any recommendations on those three? Positives/negatives? It will be my wife and two kids and we really are only looking for a clean, comfortable room to sleep in.

If you want clean and comfortable, I'd go with the Hampton or Holiday Inn Express. Might want to skip the Victory Inn. :wink:

Hampton hands down..... When you have two kids... three words.... pool continental breakfast.

We have also done well at the Falcon Plaza (Best Western) - no pool, but nice rooms. Get the center building.

You can always try Findlay....or Perrysburg...or go retro and get stoned and crash in the cemetary... :-)

Make a reservation somewhere else and call the Hampton Inn every so often before the event. They'll have a cancellation and you'll get in, then cancel the other one.

I got a room on for homecoming weekend on Tuesday of that week a couple of years ago.

Interestingly enough, I called Hampton and they said that their owner also owns the Days Inn.

That would explain why it is so nicely redone now, somebody with money owns it. Now if we could get them to buy the Elks lodge and build there. And buy-out the Victory and Knights Inn.

We have done the Courtyard in Perrysburg. Great for kids... pool.... 15 minutes or so to campus.
