Re: Dr. Shoemaker hotel info

[Guest guest]

There is a Holiday Inn Express that has a special " Shoemaker " rate. He also

sends info about other hotels in the area with his packet of forms.

The Holiday Inn Express does not use carpet fresh or room deodorizers, which was

a big help with my MCS. However I was hit by chlorine from the pool when I

walked in the lobby. And they do use regular cleaning products. I always bring

an air purifier with me for hotel rooms. If necessary I wash down surfaces with

vinegar or baking soda. My room did not have a new vinyl curtain. It would

have made me very sick. Hotel rooms usually make me very sick, but this one did

not.

On Dr. Shoemaker's hotel info sheet, he says that the Holiday Inn has one MCS

room. When I called to make my reservation, the hotel manager said they did not

and he doesn't know how that rumor got started. I informed of this and

she said she would talk to Dr. Shoemaker. However, no longer works in

Shomaker's office so I don't know if the change was made. But since I did

mention my issues with the hotel manager, he did agree to work with me. Since I

could tolerate the bathroom, I suspect he may have held my room in advance and

not cleaned it for a day or two.

I hope this info helps.

ThanKs Saralee and Sue for the information about the Holiday Inn Express. That

is the one that seemed to be the best to me also. I will let everyone know how

this visit goes. Since I can't take the CSM, it will be interesting to see what

he says to do.
