Ray,

Thanks for letting me know the places to avoid. It's just the response I expected to hear from someone that enjoys eating at Costco.

Good luck

Mark

Greg,

Thanks for your reply. I'm going to do a little internet searching to find a hotel and see what is available in the area.

Good luck

Mark

when i visited last year, we pricelined a 3 or 4 star motel/hotel and ended up getting a $110 room for like $45. Even the desk guy said people have to be crazy to pay full price, when they can just get a cheaper room online. heh. the room was nice and clean, but nothing spectacular. unfortunately i can't remember the name of the place.

they have a shuttle to and from foxwoods, but it stops running after midnight and we were forced to call a cab, which was around $20 if i remember correctly.

it was about 15 miles northwest of foxwoods and mohegan sun, but the drive was nice. although i know mohegan sun has no poker room, you should maybe drive by and check it out. it's kinda neat sitting right by a lake.

good luck

[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] i stayed at a motel about 8 miles from foxwoods..called something like top of the hill..wasn't too bad and only about 100/nite... also a restaraunt right across street from said motel had ok breakfast...

warning about foxwoods poker casino..when i was there on weekend; it was unbelievably crowded with huge waiting lists for most or all games...

i would go to ac..i hear the waitresses at borgata are nice..

Mark:

There is a Motel6 on I 95 about 15 miles from FW.

There is a place that I am curious about. It's, I think, a B+B. I have had lunch there but have never stayed there.

It is called Randall's Ordinary and has the atmosphere of colonial times. Probaly moderate pricey. It is on R2 within a mile or 2 from I 95 (c 10 mi from FW). There is only 1 small sign that is easy to miss.
