<div> <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Put our 3 votes for the Hilton. Penny, John, and I chatted it over and while we have no issues with floor space(Air beds FTW) a king size is HUGE and we'd rather stay at the cheaper hotel if it's no farther away.<br>
<br>
We don't mind much either way. but our opinion is cheaper+more beds = the right way ta go.<br>

<div id="AOLMsgPart_0_decfc291-bc78-44c2-94ac-98f6a1372b00" style="margin: 0px; font-family: Tahoma,Verdana,Arial,Sans-Serif; font-size: 12px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">
<pre style="font-size: 9pt;"><tt>So basically, I have an equal number of rooms at the Sheraton and at<br>
the brand new Hilton, and I only want to handle a block at one of<br>
those hotels (I'll cancel all the rooms at the other one).<br>
<br>
Both hotels are connected to the convention center via skybridge (the<br>
Hilton is on the stadium side).<br>
<br>
The biggest difference is really that I was able to secure rooms with<br>
2 beds at the Hilton, but all the rooms at the Sheraton have only 1<br>
bed. The Sheraton may also end up being somewhat more expensive, maybe<br>
by like $20 or so.<br>
<br>
Some people reported that they didn't get charged for parking at the<br>
Shertaon last year, but that is an anomaly, probably due to some error<br>
at the front desk. You shouldn't bank this happening.<br>
<br>
The Hilton is brand new and I haven't yet stayed in it, so I don't<br>
know what the room layout, etc... will be. It is connected to the<br>
convention via a skybridge near where registration is.<br>
<br>
The Sheraton's 1-bed rooms are definitely a little cramped because<br>
that one bed is King sized and takes up a lot of space.<br>
<br>
In general, my recommendation is for the Hilton, because although no<br>
one has ever stayed there before (since it's brand new), we have<br>
stayed in the king bed rooms at the Sheraton before, and they haven't<br>
been all that comfortable. However, some people have voiced a<br>
preference for the Sheraton, so I'd like to take some feedback before<br>
making a final decision.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
