The Red Roof in Springfield is not a "typical" Red Roof.? It is all indoor entrances, has an indoor pool/spa, breakfast etc.??It is more like a Marriot or Comfort Suites type set up.?? They are always that price...has nothing to do with the National.?? I believe there is also a lot of grass there and it's close to the Bob Evans and Cracker Barrell restaurants, about a 1/4 mile from the host Holiday Inn and about 3-4 miles from the National site.

I attended my other breed's national this year in Dallas and we had rooms at a Mariott Suites for $99 per night. That was way beyond the qualify of a Red Roof! They're reworking next year's rooms in York, PA, because the first choice hotel would not give us a good rate!

She said she had several calls about it. The rates were for another Red Roof. Lucky you...I'm still at $105 which is absurdly expensive for that quality of a hotel. It annoys me more to know that they raised the rates once they realized they had a group coming in. > Cindy > www.cinosamgsd.com > > --- On Thu, 9/17/09, Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx <Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > > From: Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx <Bokenkampgsd1@xxxxxxx> > Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Red Roof INN Springfield OH > To: cinosamgsd@xxxxxxxxx, showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Date: Thursday, September 17, 2009, 8:49 AM > > > In a message dated 8/20/2009 6:33:29 P.M.
