Posted on Wed 19th, October 2011

Not bike related. Need a place to stay from the 16-19 of November. Cheap is key. It would be nice to be nearish the Crowne Plaza.

Thoughts? Tips? Ideas?

What's your hotel room budget?

I remember Embassy Suites and Windsor Suites as being the nicest and most affordable in that immediate area.

Both are two blocks from the Crowne Plaza.

Nice one. Unfortunately, I just checked the Embassy and it was around $250 a night. Not really ideal. I'm going for an academic conference and will only be able to claim around £400 back, which will mostly be eaten by the flight. So if I'm paying out of pocket for the hotel cheap is better than comfortable!

I'll keep scanning discount hotel web pages for now.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
