cuyahogarvr attempted to make our own room reservation at the Marriott Wardman Park this morning, things didn't go exactly smoothly.
He was first informed that since we didn't have a signed contract, no reservation could be made. WTF?! The contract was signed June 12, 2006! When he confronted them with this information, they shifted stories, saying that since the window has just opened, the convention code will be entered into the system today and reservations can therefore start tomorrow.
This strikes me as somewhat lame --why should they wait for the start of the window, knowing it means it all starts a day later?-- but we'll push again tomorrow. I've updated John Z, our hotel point-of-contact and negotiator, so he can make additional phone calls if necessary.
