EXTRA SPECIAL NOTE: I know that in this great world of footbag kickers the people I've had a chance to meet have all displayed a unique lifestyle of their own and most have been compassionate and tolerant to other(s) lifestyles. I say this because The Royal Hotel is also unique in that they offer a gay friendly atmosphere. I know this is of no concern for most of you... but,(for everyone's sake, including the hotel's) I don't want anybody to be surprised. The Royal Hotel has more info on their website or you can talk to someone at the toll free # above. Other options for places to stay.
