It is Tuesday and that means it is Feist Foodie Sara Solomon with us. Over the holiday weekend she went for a stay at the Summit Hotel and golf course…. “This resort used to be called the Radisson Summit, but recently removed the Radisson name. The drive was a pleasure and the hotel was quite reasonable priced; even though the prices were elevated more than usual for Fiestas Patrias (we saw weeknight offers for $50 and weekend offers with all meals for $99 posted). We had what they called “The Presidential Suite”, which was basically a suite with one bedroom and the main space, which had a fold out couch (for the kids). For around $150/night including breakfast, the room was nice. It had a balcony, dining table, large bathroom with a big shower and a jacuzzi. It also had a second bathroom. It was comfortable and clean. It even had nice robes and slippers. But………….”
