Suzanne42, that’s not what I get when I click on the link for that motel. Now I get quoted senior $65 pay now non refundable or pay $69 at check in and free cancellation. AARP or over 60 is quoted at $70. I think it’s changing a little but I wrote down what it was quoting. Maybe my computer thinks I’m a member of this hotel chain or something. I still have not been quoted a dollar amount for those dates as high as the discounted Citrus Expo rates. It might be my error or a computer thing but they list a lower price every way you figure for what I am seeing. Tom

When I called Hotel today and mentioned the citrus expo discount, I was told 202 dollars with tax for the two days. I booked online cheeper through my Exploria Marketplace account.
