I don't have a problem with Circus - I stay there frequently. The rooms are great for the price. We normally travel around to eat anyway and if not the Pink Pony is a decent cafe.

My last experience with one of those type of reservation companies resulted in them going out of business and not paying my bill so I got double billed for my room. It took several months of letters to get straightened out. Fortunately I had charged everything and the credit card company took care of it.
