Who was it that got a great rate at wingate? and how?

<p>Sophocles, thanks for sharing the Wingate web coupon. I just called and got the $77.77 coupon rate for orientation and August OA move in. Not as good as Momoffour’s $41, but not bad.
I’ll be canceling my Marriott Courtyard reservation which was twice as much!</p>

<p>^^^We got the Wingate $77 rate as well. See you and your daughter there, timeflew.</p>

<p>Looking forward to it! Just look for the guy in the Hawaiian shirt, right?</p>

<p>^^^Of course. And if that doesn’t work, look for the group wearing lava-lavas, drinking pineapple juice at breakfast, lol :)</p>

<p>what are lava-lavas?</p>

<p>Just an FYI, but the Ambassador Inn and Suites in Tuscaloosa has great rates ($65 a night or less) for orientation dates and for move in weekend. The hotel is only a year or so old and it gets great reviews on tripadvisor and other sites. I stayed there during a football weekend last fall and it’s great. </p>

<p>The hotel is located on Skyland Blvd halfway between McFarland and 359. Here’s their website if anyone wants to check their rates.

<p>^ I got that rate for the 27-28 Bama Bound… looks good!</p>

<p>I went the Ambassador route also for Bama Bound thanks to the tips here :)</p>

<p>i got a dorm room for bama bound.</p>

<p>haha!</p>

<p>A lava-lava is a type of “skirt” worn by Polynesians. Click on the link to see (and no, that’s not us in the pic :))</p>

<p>For those who might not have found out, yet, Capstone does have a ‘stay 10 nights, get the next free’ program for parents. You have to sign up for it but the cashier handed me the form when we visited last month. It does help :)</p>

<p>Good to know - that sounds like a deal. Capstone was already booked for the days we needed - I’m guessing they book up fast for orientation & move in days. They’re already booked for parents weekend, as well.</p>
