Craddock Terry was awesome the one time I stayed there. Kirkley is a great value, especially with the LU discount. Its rooms have been refurbished and are very nice.

Has the Wingate actually closed? Why isn't it on the list?

EDIT: I checked the website and it does appear they are closed… There are still a ton of cars in the parking lot every night. Anyone know what happened to the auction? Did LU buy it?

It went to auction but Im guessing they are keeping it open until the property officially changes hands.

As both a Hilton Diamond AND Marriott platinum Rewards member, I went with....Spring Hill Suites. The Garden is nice, but for the price and the free breakfast - it's Spring Hill.

SLY - Since LU officially bought the Wingate, and plans to keep it open, care to add the Wingate back on the list?
