I actually lucked out getting this room a guy canceled as I was standing at the desk. Every hotel is full but they are giving "storm" rates some as low as 40 bucks if you can find a room. Half the town is showering at the fitness center. So the house should be OK it is brand new construction and buttoned up pretty good. I just called the drugstore next to my house and they have power so I am going to check on the house after breakfast. If not I think worst case will be Monday. The town next to me has been told they will be lucky if they have electricity by Christmas. So I have an hour til check out and I am out of here, luckily I found another hotel I can check into at one. Same scenario I was standing at the counter as someone found out they have power.
