The one that you hate (Radisson) is no longer a PL participant, but a few brand new hotels, like the Doubletree Suites almost across from the strawberry field are ... and the going PL rates seem to start at $41 range. I don't think it can be beat. (although if you get the Marriott, which is wonderful, not that parking is the most expensive BY FAR in Anaheim at $20 per night!)

It was really ahead of it's time in concept. Your cousin has had a very interesting career. I think he has a sizeable fan club also.

I think he even bought a bunch of the videos.
