suitable accommodations.

SUITES:
We will be staying at the COMFORT SUITES (3712 Hamilton Blvd, Allentown PA 18103,
610-437-9100; www.comfortsuites.com/hotel/pa117)
which is located only a few miles away from the K.D. Smith Auction Center. The
Comfort Suites is located directly across from Dorney Park, which is a major Allentown
Amusement and Water Park. They quoted us a rate of $109.99
$98.99 with
AAA or AARP
and this price includes a Breakfast Buffet for two. Directions:
I-78 Exit 54 & 54B, US 222 North (Hamilton Blvd), ½ mile to hotel.
Just opposite Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom. HOLIDAY
INN EXPRESS & SUITES: If you prefer a Holiday Inn, this hotel is located
next to the Comfort Suites, also across from Dorney Park. (3620 Hamilton Blvd,
Allentown PA 18103, 610-437-9255; www.hiexpress.com/abe.dorney).
Their rate was comparable to the Comfort Suites.
Although
there were several other Hotels closer to the Auction Center
and cheaper
we felt more comfortable recommending these two hotels as being cleaner
and more accommodating.
