(...) I think many people are staying at the Hilton because it's so close... it's where I WAS going to stay, but my old roomie kicked me out so I had to get a new hotel, and since I burned off most of my Hilton points over Christmas doing Orlando (...)

(...) I'd advise the Hilton, Troy. Bram and I are splitting a room there, as well as a lot of other people, I suspect. Speaking of which, are you guys going to be renting a van to get there? I may be in need of a little extra storage space. It's (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) I'll have to look into the prices. The past two years we stayed at the Comfort Inn which seemed reasonably priced and reasonably convenient. Actually, I think I may have looked at the Hilton last year and bagged it because they charged for (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

I stayed at the Hilton last year and it was a nice place , but Frank is right, the parking was a bit expensive. I did find that AAA had good rates for the Hilton, so I guess that offset the parking cost. I did enjoy the fact that it was with in (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

We'd like to come in a day earlier, but that jumpts the room rate up to $161/night!! Crazy. This is off the (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

Larry & All, (...) Sorry, Larry, but this is the second time you referenced this on LUGNET, and this is totally false. . I did not kick you out, Tony wanted to come after we talked about sharing a room, and he said he could sleep on the floor. (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) It was nice that the Grand Pacific Palisades in Carlsbad just automatically had the rate change. I bet if you call the hotel directly, you can negotiate a rate which gives the business rate for the one night, and the lower rate for the other (...)

Yeah, I had thought about doing just that (checking out and checking back in). But looking to get the rates for JUST wednesday night, it jumps up to $269! I guess they want to be sure to get their money! Oh well, i'll have to call and work something (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jun-02, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
