Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Hi Jenn, it's , ' mom. When staying at RMH get a suite, that will make it so much easier on them while they are there. Suite 213 or 205 I have stayed in. This gives you a living area, kitchen and a huge bedroom with two beds. Suite 213 has it's own laundry room but 205 is right down the hall from one of the laundry rooms. We finally made it home Saturday night after our flight for Friday night was cancelled due to all the air traffic. volng8r1 wrote: We were initially getting treatment here in S.Dakota.
