FL19 - Hotel
Now that flights have been booked and we are committed it's time to look for somewhere to stay on the first night.
As usual I went to booking.com for answers and found a Motel 6 with free cancellation and no advanced payment. The reviews give it 7.4/10.
It looks from blurb that many hotels like to take a deposit or even the full amount immediately on reserving a room, even if there's free cancellation.
We had this before at the Blue Marlin in Key West where we stayed two nights and were about $300 out of pocket five months before going. It wasn't so bad as we still went.
I know a lot of hoteliers don't like the free cancellations part of the system but to me it gives flexibility to the customer. If you're honest and give good service, then people will still stay with you.
Car hire seems to have hiked a bit since October 2017 when we last busied ourselves over. Currently checking the booking sites to see what deal there are. With the chances of the timeshare being one week in Orlando area and the other on the southeast Atlantic I don't want a little buzz box.
The Chevy Impala we had last year was an okay car but not in the same league as the Charger we had in Arizona.
Once the summer is over there might be more timeshares appearing on the RCI exchange list. So I keep looking to see what turns up.
