Jones Beach Hotel Situation
Fellow Parrotheads,
I am looking for help with this hotel situation out in LI. I am currently booked at the Econo Lodge, but don't know anything about the place. Is it a dive, too far away, whatever? I called about 6 of the hotels on the Jones Beach website and they are either booked, or they are places I have never heard of (i.e. Coliseum Motor Inn...This guy told me not all rooms have TV's).
I need a local to help me out here and give me a name and a number, or just tell me that the Econo Lodge is a nice place.
Also, the Econo Lodge is charging $109 (plus tax) a night. Am I going to beat that deal?
Let me know and I can't wait till July 1.

i dont think i'd stay in anyplace that is bold enough to call themselves "hicksville" lolpuckhead wrote:Whatever you do, DO NOT STAY AT THE DAYS INN in HICKSVILLE.
The place was a complete dump and we were all wishing that we had spent to extra $$ for a nicer hotel. It spelled like urine and the rooms were gross.

Then he drove around with the body....staying there would creep me out a little.....
