Folks,
I just went to the website to at least grab a room for the time being.
I was disappointed to learn that reservations are non cancellable and
non refundable!
Our contract provides that the reservations are cancellable, refundable
and substitutes permitted.
I have contacted the hotel to correct the website.

Excuse me, but isn't this in the boonies way outside town? Are we
going to be stuck in a $200 a night hotel with no reasonable
alternative accommodations eating vastly overpriced hotel food and
facing a one-hour commute to anywhere else?
We should know by now that isolated resorts ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE as
meeting locations. Even if they're vaguely close to cool places like
Dublin.
It's not too late. Please cancel the meeting now. Even if it costs a
bunch of money and means we have to skip that meeting date.
Yes, I'm serious.
And no, I don't play golf, which appears to be the entire focus of
this sort of location.
