Wow, Pam, thanks for that info!

I just phoned the Ramada and got $62 per nite! Go figure! If a fridge

is available, it will cost an additional $10 per nite.

I also got a reservation at the Best Western in Glendale...just a few

miles out from Burbank...for $109 the first two nite, and $99 the

second two nites (averaging $104)...we get the two queen beds and a

sofa, fridge, microwave, vcr, and continental bkfst. There's a pool

and jacuzzi at this hotel.

The Holiday Inn includes a fridge at no cost, but no microwave or vcr

is available. (But remember the pool, waterfall, and jacuzzi...and

close proximity to NBC studios.) This is at the $110 per nite rate

(averaged out).

Hey everybody. Michele had made our reservations at the Holiday Inn

yesterday, and she said she had gotten the coupon rate. I told her to

double check today, and just like , no coupon. So we tried the

one at Universal which is accepting coupon They want 189 for first

night for 3 people. Entertainment card rate was $84.50 for up to 5

people, so I had originally booked that. Then called Ramada Inn. I

asked for cheapest rate available, either with Taebo rate if avail,

AAA, or Entertainment card. Are you guys sitting down? They gave me a

rate of $64.50 per night with 2 queen beds and a sofa bed, no coupon

required. I promptly called back Holiday Inn, and told them to

roundhouse kick my reservation. So Michele, Sandie and I will be

staying at the Ramada Inn in Burbank under Michele Epstein. I would

call Ramada Inn and check for hotels in and around the area. They were

very helpful, and said that won entrepeneur of the year. Their

number is 1-888-298-2054. They do have hotels in the near area to

Burbank as well. we would love to go to the world training

center with you Sunday. They are open, just no . Good luck. Patty

My first choice would be the Best Western because of the fridge,

microwave, queen beds, sofabed, jacuzzi and pool; second would be the

ramada because of the price and queen beds and sofa bed; and last, would

be the holiday inn, because the beds are smaller and no sofabed and

because they gave the run around. I'll go with whatever everyone

else wants to do, though.

me with her flight and time of arrival in LAX so and I can pick

her up.

you can just get up in the am and go downstairs for breaskfast. They

usually have a pretty good variety of stuff to eat...at least the

Hampton Inn that I stayed at when I went to the tapings in November

did. How far is Glendale from the NBC studios?

My MIL lives in Glendale and we drove to NBC studios several times.... I think

it was about 10 minutes. Not bad at all. Glendale also has some a nift

shopping mall and some froo froo resteraunts where we can get veggies and

healthy food for a moderate price. I'm sure the resteraunts and stuff in

Burbank are more expensive. What is the address of the hotel........maybe my

fiance can convince his mother to drive by the hotel. I told her last night

that I was coming. It was a painful conversation :-(

[Guest guest]

Nooooooooooo!!! Why subject yourself to your Mother-in-law???? Ick!

This is vacation time, girl!!! If staying in Glendale means having to

deal with her, I say forget it!...let's stay in Burbank!

Naw...I can handle seeing her once or twice. You see if I'm in Glendale she can

drive to meet me. If I'm in Burbank she's gonna expect I find a way over to see

her. Her husbands really nice so I don't mind. Plus I need to build bridges.

I'd have to see her anyways. I warned her that we were on a tight schedule :-*

lol. You know we've got to be over at that World training center alot for

rehersal.....ha ha.

Who knows you've got to take the good with the bad...

[Guest guest]

I agree with . Let's stay in the holiday inn in Burbank (ask for

fridge). We cannot subject to her MIL, unless all of us are

willing to do the same and I am not. Plus, we'll get to stay with Suzi.

I'm really okay with the MIL.. I'll have to see her anyways. IT will be just

once. Really. If we do stay at the holiday inn....maybe we should ask that we

get a room upgrade since we are staying four nights. Sometimes they will do

that..or if you fly a certain airline. Since we are flying a couple of

different airlines. That might work too :-)

But like I said...I'm really okay with Glendale since I will have to see her

anyways. I just want to make sure it is in a good part of Glendale. If so

there will be plenty of stuff walking distance etc.

I calculated the distance from my sisters house to the Best Western. I think

Western is 11.1 miles from my sisters house or 26 minutes. No way would I

want any of you to drive that far to get me for the taping! I think where

ever ya'll end up staying, I'll borrow my sisters car and meet you all at

your hotel. Then maybe we can pile into one car for the taping?

Hey, I just looked at a map! My sisters house is near Beverly Hills, not near

Glendale. Don't supposed you'd want to stay at the Beverly Hills Hotel, LOL!

I'll definitely borrow my sisters car and meet you guys at your hotel!! This
