Here are a few great events to share with your family and friends.

   Spring is in the air at the Courtyard, and the signs are hard to miss. From the tulips blooming in the Courtyard to the people calling and booking our Stay and Play Golf Packages, things are heating up. And speaking of heating up, did you get a chance to be outside and enjoy the beautiful weather last week? We had guests enjoying the Courtyard and we had an annual visit from a pair of migrating ducks who waddled up the driveway to check-out what was new and happening at their favorite area hotel.
   And following the idea of new and fresh, we are implementing some new ideas here at Courtyard by Marriott Lafayette. To see what is new and happening at our hotel, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Blogger, Google+ and our other social media sites. So, friend us, follow our tweets, share your ideas, and help us enhance our social network as well as your experience while you explore our hotel and the Lafayette area.
   Moving forward with this year, our emphasis here at Courtyard is, as always, our guests. We encourage you to let us know how we are doing and, more importantly, what we can do to make your stay better. So, if you need a restaurant suggestion, are looking for a local park to hike, or just want a Starbucks coffee at 2 in the afternoon, stop by and see our guest service staff in the lobby to “experience Lafayette the Courtyard by Marriott way.
