Tickled to hear the pianist in the atrium performing the theme to “Hockey Night in Canada.” We have some boxes of tea as mementos of our visit.

We were in the Meridel LeSueur room, which has probably been renamed and remodeled now (don’t blame us). My kid didn’t enjoy the trundle bed so much, but a kind guest did invite us up to check out her Dr. Seuss room.
The hotel owner was distrustful of my child’s ability to behave himself, but he quite charmed the front desk staff and fed the hotel’s cat Dickens some bacon from breakfast.
I would absolutely go again. Even with $6/gallon gas prices.
