Re: [QUAD-L] Hotels (my horror story)
This is really ironic, I was just talking to my brother yesterday about how asinine it is that we need prescriptions for things like catheters, changing kits, etc. Who in their right mind is going to buy such an expensive product, but someone that really needs it. I might be wrong, but I really don't see this being in the same venue as a controlled substance, like Valium or codeine.

RE: [QUAD-L] Hotels (my horror story)
I only stayed at 1 hotel, and that was on 2 different trips to AZ. My last trip I called the night before to confirm my reservations for the accessible room. But when I got there it was full, and had been for months and going to be used for months to come. So when I made my reservations they knew it was full. They just want to get you there and hope to fit you in somewhere. It ended up working out well though. Instead of the accessible 3 bed room, 4 of us in 1 room (1 person using a roll-in bed) they gave us 2 rooms for the same price. 1 room was a 2 bed accessible room. Living there for 2 months, it was less crowded. Greg

FYI, all Red Roof Inns have open bed frames that accommodate Hoyer lifts. I have stayed at many of them for just that reason. They are as consistent from property to property as McDonald's. Their rates are also good if you are looking to save some money.

My boyfriend and I have stayed at the holiday inn express a couple of times. You can get a handicapped room. It had a queen size bed and we were able to use a hoyer without any problems. I always go in before I get him out of the van and make sure the room is ok and that I can use a hoyer. Some hotels beds are on risers and a hoyer will not go under them. Some holiday inn expresses have suites with 2 bedrooms and that works well when we travel with someone other than just us. They have always been gracious about helping us with anything we need.
