My room was standard and contained, ironing board, iron, hairdryer. Cots and rollaways and fridges are available on request. The rollaways are $15 per night but I did not enquire on the cost of the other items.
Note although rollaways are available if you don’t want to bed share, the maximum number per room is still 4.

The self parking area is where our buses will pick up and drop off.
We have 100 rooms reserved for our attendees until August 10th 2009. Rooms cannot be reserved until October and we hope to negotiate a good rate by then. Watch the message board and website.
Regretably they only have 2 rooms for handicapped guests and these are allocated on a first come basis at registration. If you are in need of a special room please email Vicki privately and she will see what she can do to help. However, the standard room would accommodate a wheelchair, the bathroom would not.
The hotel has wi-fi access but there is no internet café on site.
