Atlanta 2010: Where Will You Be?
 
It's getting closer. As the weeks until Atlanta begin to wind down, teams are starting to prepare for it. So, this begs the question, what hotel is everyone staying at? I know for me, being able to talk and hang out with other teams was half the fun, and a lot of that was done at the hotel (shout out to 176, best end hallway party ever!)

So I'll start. 1124 is at the Embassy Suites :)

I think 116 is staying at the Holiday Inn, not exactly sure, unfortunately, it's no OMNI D:

for people who have stayed at the Omni and Marquis, which is actually more fun? I will most likely be going as a volunteer again this year, and im debating on where to stay

We stayed at the Omni in 2006 and were not big fans.

I've stayed at the Marquis 3 times now and much prefer it in every regard except distance.

Chris is me 22-03-2010 02:00

Re: Atlanta 2010: Where Will You Be?
 
Stayed at both and couldn't really tell the difference. Omni's internet is worse, Marquis costs money. Both have comfy beds. That's all I really noticed other than walking distance, where the Omni wins.

Still figuring out arrangements myself, so I'll let y'all know. :)

Re: Atlanta 2010: Where Will You Be?
 
I'm not sure where the Aussies will be staying but I've been told it's a "modest hotel outside of Atlanta"

Thanks,

Haha, yup. Quirk of ours...we've always stayed in a hotel. Plus, with kids from all over Atlanta, it actually is easier to stay in a hotel to have meetings every night and whatnot.

Wow...we try to prevent hotel-ness. We are about half an hour out, and we drive down all 3.5 days.

I (personally) gave up on trying to prevent hotel-ness, as you put it, long ago. Rather than the kids, I think it was originally the coaches' decision because they didn't want to drive every day. Since then...eh, we've gone with the flow.

Can someone comment on the Days Inn right in downtown?
I tried the omni many weeks ago and it was booked!
We're getting rental cars anyhow again, even though it kills our bank account.
This will be our biggest group yet as it approaches 35 for our team. You dont want to see our airfare bill!

We will apply for the IRI and I hope they accept us.
One of these days we will find the formula for winning a regional. We have been a finalist two times and one quarterfinal in our 6 year history. Always a bridesmaid, never the bride.
