AHA! I have made my hotel reservations. At the Hilton on the company dime till Friday, and at the Holiday Inn Friday through Monday. Spoke to a lovely woman named Carrie, no problems, non-smoking king bed room for $99 plus tax.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!
Excellent!
(stabby stabby SD heheheheheh...)
Just booked our room for 2 nights, 19-21. We are still unsure as to how long we'll actually be there or even HOW we're getting up there. As we get closer we'll know more. We might need a bed for the 3 of us maybe Thursday night and Sunday night, but maybe not. We'll see.
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
wheeeeeeeeee indeed!
60 room nights, spread out over four nights
Just to clarify this -- if I stay in the hotel for 4 nights, that counts as 4 "room nights"?
how many room nights do we have booked, at last count? (and when was the last count?)
if I stay in the hotel for 4 nights, that counts as 4 "room nights"?
Yep - that's my understanding. The breakdown of the requirement is as follows:
Day Thu Fr Sat Sun
Date 5/18/06 5/19/06 5/20/06 5/21/06
Guestrooms 10 25 25 5
That works out to 65 rooms as the basic block-booking. We have to meet 60 of those to keep the rate. So, one room for four nights counts as four of the 65.
edit: Nora, don't know yet. That's one of the things I'll find out when I sit down with the hotel people.

OK, cool. Thanks, again, for doing all this stuff!
Dear gods....to drive....to fly? Which which which??
Not that I have any room on any credit card right now.......

Surely a balance of reality factors, bebe, yes? Seven hours each way in a car, with Em - that wouldn't have been an issue with Jo, who was a remarkably good traveler as a baby, but I don't know about other peoples' kids. Time: how much do you have to take off, and does the idea of essentially two days of your holiday on the highway a factor?
Against cost of flying. Also a factor.
Huh.
