Any information would be much appreciated.

the downtown Marriott is actually attached to the convention center

there is a shuttle running from the Marriott residence inn to the downtown Marriott.

The Downtown Mariott was a very nice hotel. that where we stayed last year an it was awsome.

5

This one’s a bit expensive for a FIRST trip.

6

This one isn’t exactly easy to walk from either.

also keep in mind that Hartford has a free shuttle bus that goes around the city and one of the stops is the Convention Center; many hotels have shuttle services and would be available to bring you to and from the Convention Center; and if you ask nicely, you may be able to work out a deal with a local team for transportation! :slight_smile:

Yeah, that’s really great. I noticed that in the information packet you sent me the link to.

Thanks to everyone for all their helpfulness! :smiley:

Team 549 the DevilDawgs are looking for a hotel to stay in while competing in the UTC Regional in Hartford. Where is everyone staying? Does anyone have any prices?

I am personally going to staying in one of the hotels thats in close proximity. I will be working as one of the FIRST Safety Advisors for the second year. I will probably have a room to myself which is pretty good. If anyone out there in FIRST land would like to split a room let me know. I’ll probably book my room very soon.

Thanks,

Why did you put a link here back to this thread? :rolleyes:

Hey Vin, talk to me tonight at the meeting if you’ll be there.

Oh no Elgin, I’d rather share a room with Rosie O’Donnel before / during / and after a pie eating contest.

I won’t be at the meeting tonight but we’ll talk Tuesday. Is your Tuesday good?

14

Ha. No idea… I must have been low on sleep.

15

Hahahahaha! Yeah… Tuesday is good.

Us guys in the military are always low on sleep! Lol man, I would trade my left foot for more sleep. Well maybe not, I kinda need it these days.
