There are a few more hotel in Downtown that aren't really priced too high. The Marriott (Rennaissance Center) runs about $130 a night, and I think it has about 1300 rooms. It is also right next to Hart Plaza along the river. Across the street from the Marriott is the Courtyard. I stayed there last weekend and paid $120/night. They also upgraded my room to a suite, and I still only paid $120. The courtyard is right across from Hart Plaza. The Pontchartrain Hotel is also right across from Hart Plaza, but I'm not sure what it costs. Also, for any of these hotels you'll probably pay about $20/day for parking. That is if you get the valet parking for your hotel. If you park in a public deck, you'll pay every time you come and go. At the hotel parking decks you pay once per day, regardless of how many times you come and go. I hope to see everyone there. Later, Pat
