[bc-gnso] Involuntary Reservation change by Hilton Prague

[Scott M. McCormick]

Same here, I booked while still at the meeting.  When logged into my Hilton account, the reservations are still there but cannot access/manage any details...

What is left that ICANN can have a "technical glitch" with....?  Watch out, the L root might be next....

For everyone that was "moved" to Hotel Andels, there are plenty of great hotels closer to the venue in Old Town and Wenceslas Square.  The Yellow and Red lines have access to the Hilton via Florenc Metro Station, which is a block from the Hilton.
