Second Hotel is the Charm

Originally, when booking my trip to Columbus, I booked a room on Hotels.com. I prepaid for the room and assumed it would be okay because it was a Choice Hotel. It wouldn't be fancy, but it would be safe and clean. Before I left, Brian and I were joking that it would probably turn out to be murder motel. He made me promise that if it was sketchy, I would forget about the prepaid room and go somewhere safe. I never expected to have to do that.

However, when pulling up to the hotel, there were two cop cars outside and a group of unsavory looking people hanging in the parking lot. Murder Motel. Time to leave.

Thank god for Priceline. I named by own price and am now going to rest my head in the Sheraton Suites and their magical pillow bed. I think we will stay here when we come back for the transfer. It's got a little sitting area and a fridge and microwave.  There is a bar in the lobby for Brian and lots of restaurants around us. Plus, I can rack up more Starwood points.
