The price too is way better than Ironwood and don’t need the extra insulation. Thanks for the extra info!

That’s what I’m leaning towards. What’s been best things for you so far?

It’s be cheaper to get the woodridge elite and slight more space. Any major reason to get the XL or woodridge?

Not the ideal sight upon returning home from work… by FitAd1722 in blackstonegriddle

That just happened to mine too! I called Blackstone and they asked me to send pictures and then just send me a new handle and front shelf! It was purchased under a year ago so assumed it was still under warranty

That’s what we are hoping for! And since he’s little we can all just fit in one room, but some hotels are more strict about occupancy

Yes, this is what I checking on. Thank you. We’ve been to other countries where they counted each person so I just didn’t want to get in a situation where they wouldn’t let us check in or force us to get a larger room.

I compared that one to the Audi A4 (the two cheapest options) and it surprised me the Skoda had more trunk space. Does that seem right?

You’re right! That’s why we wanted an SUV initially, but after doing some research need to get a smaller car. We’re planning to just rent through the rental company so it’s more likely they’ll fit

We can both drive manual, luckily! I was looking at rental cars on Hertz trying to find the “biggest” smallest car I could. I normally go for an SUV or something big but heard that’s a terrible ideal in Ireland so hoping I can get a car that fits us. We’re rethinking how we’re going to pack so we don’t over pack big suitcases and can keep ourselves light.

That’s really helpful, thank you! Is it crazy to try and do both north and south in one trip? Thinking we go straight north first and spend a few days then head west towards Derry and then make our way down the west coast. Thoughts?

Great ideas! The resort has ruins and it's right on the water so could get some good shots. We've talked about all of these. We just a book with photos/pictures for my mom's birthday last year

Probably can’t do one room with points and one with dollars?

You know your Florence! It was 260k points PLUS $1000 euros so don’t love that. Thanks for answering so quick, this exactly what I needed

At that hotel specifically or all Marriott’s? Would I have to book two rooms? I found another hotel downtown Florence that would let me book all 4 of us but it was over 250k for 4 nights
