4pm local.

The point of the WSJ story is that that this policy is on the way out,
now that hotels are fuller. Many hotels have switched to 24 hour
cancelation, a few to 48 hours. I suspect Jay got into the article
because he's the only one with a 72 hour policy.

I envision one of the 48 hour hotels getting defensive when the
reporter called and saying: "Hey, I'm being generous! You want a tough
policy, talk to Jay at Alexis Park Inn!"

After all, how would it happen that a reporter in NYC would hit upon
the Alexis Park Inn, as well known as it may be to our little
community?
