Accommodations Update (22-JN-99) All, I talked to Ms. Karen Goodgame, who is handling the reservations at the Hampton Inn and Homewood Suites. She requested that I advise everyone that the blocked reservations I had made for our group will expire this week, and any unreserved rooms will be turned back to the general reservations desk. So, if you have not yet made your reservations, you need to do so ASAP in order to be assured of rooms. FYI, here is recap of accommodations and prices: =========================== Group Accommodations Finalized : Group Name = DELL HEADS I have blocked rooms at the Hampton Inn (Austin-South) and the Homewood Suites Hotel (Austin South) located at IH-35 and Highway 71 (Ben White Boulevard). These are co-owned, adjacent properties. I believe that this arrangement will offer everyone an appropriate comfort level at a reasonable cost. I decided to move the location because it will be a) much closer to the downtown activities; b) much closer to the new airport, scheduled to open 1-MY-99; and c) we get a larger selection of accommodations, and they are as nice as anything else we looked at. This is what you get, from most deluxe to simplest:All rooms include 25" TV (two in two-bedroom suites) with expanded TV channels HBO, CNBC, and Nintendo Two-line phone with voice messaging and free local calls Separate data ports Coffee maker Hair Dryer Iron and Ironing Board Deluxe continental breakfast USA Today Free Airport Shuttle 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed Homewood Suites Hotel, Austin South 1-800-225-5466 a) * Two-bedroom suite $139.00 Two bedrooms: King and 2 Double beds, or King and King Two separate baths (one with dressing room) Fully equipped Kitchen (microwave, refrigerator, dishes) Living Room Complimentary evening snacks and beverages b) * King Suite $95 One bedroom with King or two double beds Bath with dressing room Living room Fully equipped Kitchen (microwave, refrigerator, dishes) Complimentary evening snacks and beverages Hampton Inn, Austin South 1-800-426-7866 c) * King Study $84 Larger room, with desk and work area.
