My wife and I can't make it for the uk game this weekend and we just called to cancel our room at the microtel on hwy 182 (over by the shell station close to the highlands). They told us it had to have been cancelled 1 wk before this coming Friday and no exceptions. They said no manager will be on duty until Tuesday. I figure we may be out of luck so I thought maybe someone on here would be interested.

PM me if interested. After taxes it is $425 total for fri and sat nights.

Bump bc:

They will not let me cancel my reservation but they will allow me to transfer the room to someone else. Please pm me if interested.

I am interested but will not for the entire 425 as I'd only need the room for sat night. Text me at 404.520.2569 to discuss

Admins, one of y'all help the guy out. Seriously. It could be an insane troll, & that's the OM Lady's Basketball Clinic number. But, on the off chance it's not...better safe than sorry.

Don't know if he's a troll, but he has his facts right about Starkville hotels. Two night stay required, and pretty expensive. That's why I don't stay in Starkville. But ... not more than most in Columbus. I stayed in the new Hampton in Columbus for the Troy game and it was about $220 for one night.

Desperation bump

I am not asking for the $, just someone who will transfer the room from my name to theirs. It could probably even be done without you telling me your name if that is a concern for anyone.

That kinda puts it in perspective, huh? Of course, you'd have utilities and such, but still about the same as 5 game weekend nights in a hotel.

I don't see anything unusual or sinister about your request/offer. It's happened many times before, and there are probably people who would like to take you up on it. If you don't go, you pay anyway unless you can find someone to transfer it to. That's not good, but I suppose I understand the hotel's point of view. I used to stay in the Microtel a few years ago, and at that time you had to sign up for the entire season, with a two night minimum. There's more competition in Starkville now though.

I wonder if they'd rent your room out anyway when you didn't show up, and keep both people's money ....
