I stayed 2 nights, September 15th and 16th. I have stayed here before, also for Crypticon. It is always busy for Crypticon, and this year was no different. I arrived shortly before 3, and was in my room in no time at all. On the 4th floor, overlooking the side, or back of the rather large property. My king bed room was quite spacious. This year I did not bring a bicycle, but this room would have had plenty of space. The room was clean and comfortable. It smelled good. And it just looked good. The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked great. Everything worked well. There is a nice size parking ramp just outside the hotels side entrance. Along with a bit of uncovered parking. There is a decent sized parking lot at the far back corner of the hotel. The parking lots, and ramp, are very busy for Crypticon. It is a huge property, and this year I did check out the walking around the outside of the building. It is a very nice, and quite lengthy walk around the property. I used this quite a bit. Everyone I ran into from the property was very nice. The front desk personnel were very nice. Even with how busy it was at times. This year I did try out the on-site restaurant for buffet breakfast on Saturday morning. It was very good! Coffee and juice included. I had a very nice visit, and would absolutely stay again.
