Westin Peachtree Plaza, Atlanta Georgia
Price per room: If known.
Not sure, we had 4 people in our room though to keep costs down,
Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?
Pool which I heard was salty, Paid internet access $15 for 24 hours (not worth it for the time I was in the hotel) Starbucks in the lobby.
Suprise Charges: If any.
None that I know of, except for high phone bill for a mentor who called home
Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?
Took the MARTA sytem - $11.00 for a five day unliminted pass for each person, definately worth it. Had to transfer at Five Points Station, but was easy to navigate (for some) :rolleyes:
Walked one day, and was 15 minutes from lobby to pits… Not to shabby.
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
Hard Rock Cafe, McDonalds, and Hooters were right across the street. Restaurant on top of hotel - I’m guessing that was expensive though since it was a rotating Restaurant. Starbucks in the lobby.
Any additional Comments?
Very Nice place, easy to spot from anywhere in the city cause of it’s unique cylindrical shape.
Elevators were a kind of pain, cause it was so tall, two sets of elevators, one set for the top floors, and one set for the bottom floors.
No way to take stairs up to 29th floor to bypass elevators if you felt up to it.
Excellent views from every room cause of the room layout for the cylindrical shaped hotel.
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year?
Yes, just get the MARTA pass too. Unless you feel up to a 15 minute walk everyday.
Would you stay at the same hotel Next year?
Yes and No. I like it, so yes. But I want to see what the other hotels in the area are like.
And just for fun, What floor did you stay on?
29th Floor
yeah…me and a couple friends walked over to the westin…one of the nicest hotels ive ever seen…72 floors…the elevator was fun…couldnt get to the pool though cuz we didnt have a keycard

Mariot Marquis
Price per room: No idea…sorry
Ammenities: Details - $10 for internet access, food there, but not free
Suprise Charges: Not that I know of
Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - We took our charter bus, but we walked one day and used MARTA once. It’s not bad
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants? There were 3 or 4 restraunts in the hotel and it was connected to the Peachtree Center, which had a food court and MARTA stop.
Any additional Comments? The atrium was beautiful, the rooms were rooms. Nothing too special there. The thing is, the hotel was DEAD! We went to the omni one night, and within 5 minutes of being there we met about 10 FIRST kids. We met at least 25 kids that night. We didn’t meet any at our hotel. Nobody hung out in the lobby. The Omni wasn’t as nice, but the abundance of people more than made up for it.
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year? If more teams stay there/come out of their rooms!
Would you stay at the same hotel Next year? I’d rather stay in the Omni
And just for fun, What floor did you stay on? 25th

Walk, it was good and during the nice cool morning/afternoon hours. However, I would not recommend it if you plan on a carrying anything more than a laptop/backpack (which is just about the max you’d need to carry).
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
We found out on Friday night that via sky walk there was a bar / grill in the next building (Marriott Marquis pwnage hotel) and like a dairy queen and some other stuff in the one inbetween the 2. Since the sky walk was in the shape of an “L” it connected 3 buildings. So food wasnt too far, but all of us ate at CNN before we left.

Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)
Super8 – Downtown Atlanta
Price per room: If known.
I paid $65 for three nights… (3 people in a double room)
Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?
We had a two level hotel room, which consisted of a 10’x10’ room with a small bathroom that had a 12" step up. The epitomy of “ghetto”
**Suprise Charges: If any. **
Beyond the fact that the front desk attendant jokingly told us the credit card declined, no… Oh, and, segways were apparently dis-allowed at a few hotels, as i was requested to walk mine by the management while in the omni, the management at the super8 simply said, “yo that sh#@&t is hot!”
Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?
about a half mile walk-- no biggy
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
Close to the downtown “food” district, again about a half mile walk.
Any additional Comments?
I was bitten by a spider while in the hotel room-- must have happened while sleeping. The hotel refused to re-make our bed as a backpack was left on it.
Having a 12" step into the bathroom isn’t a good idea for those early morning stumbles into the bathroom… i forgot to “step down” one time, even though there was a cheesy little sign.
The elevators were slow, and incredibly small. You’d be lucky to fit thee people in the elevator.
Ask anyone in this picture for comments about our hotel.
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year?

Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)
Embassy Suites-Downtown Atlanta
You know that hotel right next to Centennial Park, yea that was it, the really nice looking one
Price per room: If known.
um…don’t know exact, but expensive
Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?
Internet was $10 for 24 hours, free breakfast (good food too) but we had to make them open earlier (6AM) so we could get all the team out on time
They had some manager’s cocktail hour one night, free drinks (both for adults and underage) they had little sitting areas on each floor, 2nd floor roof pool, microwave, minifridge, two beds in one room (size=double) and a pull out queen size couch
**Suprise Charges: If any. **
yea…money gone from some team member’s wallets among other stuff moved and gone through
Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?
walk, RIGHT there
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants?
about 45 second walk to CNN center, about 8 minutes to Hard Rock, Hooters, etc
Any additional Comments?
Hotel security was all over us at 12, when all we did was sit there and talk quietly, although there might have been others, but not sure. Service was good expect thier refusal to give us extra blankets, pillows and towels because “enough were supplied for 2 people, which the room is meant for, and they only have the inventory for”
No fan in the bathroom, so when you take a shower, it just lingers in the room, kinda wierd
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year?
Um… unsure, i’m pretty sure we’re the only team with a bad experience, so yes, go ahead, its really nice
Would you stay at the same hotel Next year?
nope

Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)
Super8 – Downtown Atlanta
I’ll not continue with the survey, heh. Don’t ever stay at this place, unless you absolutely have to. Book early, and spend the extra $10 or $20 you need for a better hotel. From the experiences of walking to this place in the middle of the night, to trying to get into the building, to trying to get into my room, to trying to sleep, to trying to use the bathroom, this place gets a 1/10 (1 because its cheap). So, FIRST didn’t have it on their list of suggested hotels and they were right. Steer clear, folks!
**Name of your hotel and Location (Atlanta, Suburb??)**Hilton Atlanta, 5993 Peachtree International Blvd.
**Price per room: If known.**Not really sure but the travel pages state about $140 a night.
**Ammenities: Details - Internet Access (charged for or free?), Breakfast?**Drug store, a pair of high end restraunts, Outdoor pool, air conditioning, safe. No breakfast.
Suprise Charges: If any. Nasty teenage-hating guest who have security on speed dail with ultra-sensite hearing for the slightest noise nad the am,azing ability to assume that door knocking is the equivalent of rioting. :rolleyes: Other even more rowdy hotel revelers who use FIRST givaways irresponsibly and get them caught in hte elevators and get FIRST in trouble with the hotel.
**Transportation to and from the Georgia Dome - Bus route, MARTA system, walk?/]b Our team bought MARTA passes.
Relative closeness to food, and restaurants? Ate at McDonalds twice and near to the Hard Rock Cafe. Kids wanted to go to Hooters.
Any additional Comments? Kids enjoyed elevators. particlarly the outdoor express to the rood resteraunt.
Would you reccomend this hotel for FIRST teams next year? Yes.
