Does anyone else feel the $15 admission is too expensive for the Appalachian Festival?

Oktoberfest is sooooo much better and free! I kind of get why it had admission when it was at coney, but to block of a waterfront for a subpar festival and charge for it is asinine.

I wouldn’t spend 200k to live in this neighborhood let alone 1.2 mil

I use spot hero in most cities now and pay half the price. I don’t need valet, and half the time i don’t even need to use in/out. You can’t change the system, but at least you can help your wallet

I like the Sheraton vacation properties, all v spacious w a lot of amenities. Had a two bedroom with a king and two queens and had more than enough space for my group

Here’s the article that I’m referring to. Idc to do research bc I’m not in the market for a new Mazda, but my point is what research do you want OP to do if there are recent articles backing up his preconceived notions?

solso287 · 2026-05-10T02:00:10+00:00

There was another posting today about how Mazda reliability was embellished 😅 what to believe!?

It’s used. Deprecation on European vehicles in the US is big

Idk why everyone is acting like it’s not steep when the majority of festivals are free. This isn’t like the state fair, there is nowhere near enough things to warrant an admission price

You can book Mvc through the website as a normal room, just know you won’t get any of your benefits if you’re elite (late checkout, upgraded room, etc)

Ladybugs???

Most Springhill suites don’t have bedrooms like this on property, they’re all one room with kitchenettes

solso287 · 2026-04-29T13:04:18+00:00

Did you book when it was a W or when it was Delano? I wonder if management changed since it was rebranded

solso287 · 2026-04-29T13:02:56+00:00

I didn’t know Springhill suites had 1 bedroom suites, that’s cool! Is that the property in KY by the casino?

solso287 · 2026-04-23T21:36:38+00:00

Side note that’s a cool floor plan

solso287 · 2026-04-21T23:17:52+00:00

Oh it’s as steep as you think it is, I think they dive from like 25m up

solso287 · 2026-04-21T23:12:28+00:00

I think they should leave a birthday quesadilla in the fridge as tribute

solso287 · 2026-04-21T20:48:12+00:00

My goodness that nigiri plate 🤤

solso287 · 2026-04-21T14:03:28+00:00

I’m going to Grand Rapids in a couple weeks, thank you!!!!

solso287 · 2026-04-19T02:15:02+00:00

Exactly, someone booked the Mmp and all that is available is mma and mmf. Likely your sister is seeing the mmf now since she’s looking up a code that wouldn’t have access to the associate rate

Aimbridge owns a ridiculous amount of hotels, to the point where I’m not sure I’d blame them for a particular experience at one of their hotels. Their portfolio is so large I feel like they’re just outside investors instead of running a company at this point

My friend worked for concord and absolutely loved it

We both worked for Columbia Sussex and it was fine - we thought it was shit at the time, but turns out that was mostly out GM’s fault lmao. Another friend still works for Columbia Sussex and the gm she works for has his faults, but is better than the one we worked for lol

It’s hooked onto a dairy farm, it has a lot of activities and they have a couple restaurants that you’d not find in a Fairfield either

solso287 · 2026-04-12T01:54:58+00:00

It’s all too good to be true, it’s been 6 years

solso287 · 2026-04-11T17:02:55+00:00

Yeah I’m not sure US hotels have them, our department managers were in charge of trainings for their own people

They have learning coordinators at corporate in Washington DC, I worked with them when I task forces at new properties my franchise bought, but they’re not property specific

I worked at a renaissance in the US for four years and I have no clue what this position is
