Doug,
It's not a dream. We waited until the decision was made on where State would be this year before we signed a contract with the hotel we stay at. They wanted me to sign a contract at the $84 rate before I left their hotel last year; I chose to wait before I made that decision. I talked with them immediately after the state location was made and our price went from $84 to $99. After 2 months of some lengthy e-mails and phone discussions and 3 sale reps later we settled on $85.
Once again, they wasted no time at all on taking advantage of those traveling to Topeka!!
