I'm from the Fredericksburg area and after going around to 5-area hotels trying to get a good rate for a reunion I ended up at the Sunday House. It was such a welcome difference than the reception I had rec'd at other local hotels. Not one of them was really willing to work w/ me on getting a good rate. Having a large group coming from all over the US I wanted to keep hotel costs down as much as possible. Most of the attitudes I rec' d were we really don't need to give you a good rate, we can fill our hotels anyway. I knew it would be difficult as this was for Memorial Weekend. When I walked into Sunday House and explained how difficult a time I was having, Judy the sales manager right away said, "Honey, we'll get you taken care of before you leave here today!" She meant it, she gave us a great rate and gave us the hospitality room complimentary. She was so friendly and easy to work with. I was in touch w/ her over the next few months and we just had our reunion w/ 43 people attending. Not only did she give us the hospitality room at no charge, she stocked it w/ snacks! She had made a sign and hung on the wall welcoming our group, bought a cake, fruit tray, veggie tray and two meat, cheese, and cracker trays. I had no idea she was going to do that. On top of that, vases of fresh flowers in the rooms, personalized welcome packets for all and candy in personalized cups. The attention to detail was amazing and much appreciated. The staff in general were very friendly and willing to do whatever right away. I will definitely recommend Sunday House to everyone. It's an older hotel, but it doesn't have a smell in the rooms, they are clean. It has a charm about it and the location is great, walking distance to most places. I left with a great feeling about this place. You can tell they want repeat business.
