Sheets and Bedding from Heaven
No one appreciates fine sheets like the Dining Duo. These were so fabulous, we wanted to stuff them in our suitcases and take them home. We thought better of it (the suitcase was too small), and instead went to the Homestore in the Esplanade where we bought some, and a few big, thick fluffy towels too. Danette Schmidt as a fabulous sales associate and tended to our every need, so make sure you ask for her. Everything was actually pretty reasonably priced King sheet set consisting of a flat, fitted and two pillow cases for $299), and Encore even supplies you with a menu of items in your room if you don’t feel like shopping (who doesn't feel like shopping?). We came close to getting that divine mattress as well (Cal King sold and delivered for $2,995), but we had to stop somewhere. Maybe on the next trip.
