    Default Any suggestions?

    I am going to a baseball tournament in Huntsville mid June. A lot of the places I would like to stay are booked. I see it is not very far to College Station so I thought I might find somthing there that will be nicer for the money.

    Anyone got suggestions?

    Hi ya'll......I'm still here...jusy quitely lurking

    Days Inn in New Waverly would be closer I think.


    CS > Huntsville = 52.27 miles

    New Waverly > Huntsville = 15.77 miles

    I'm open for anything clean and as close as we can be to the University. B & B would work great.

    Nephew playing there Thurs-Sun. and we will need to be able to rest in between games.

    Is the University Hotel booked out? It is ON CAMPUS. Tough to get any closer. Anyone can stay there if there is a vacancy. I think it was remodeled in the past year so should be nice. I used to stay there over the years. It cost a bit more than the Motel 6, but was also more convenient. With all the motels in Huntsville it is difficult to conceive that they would ALL be full.
    Maybe if you didn't try to be so clever, you wouldn't end up looking so stupid.

    It is booked. And several of the others also. I think the teams have probably booked the majority of the good rooms that are reasonable and close.

    I really wanted to get that one but no such luck.

    We will be there 3 nights and would like to keep it under $100. a night and have a clean place to stay. I see you live there....any other place that might not show up on the usual hotel websites?
    Mom and Pop places? Empty rooms from students going home?
    B & B?

    I've stayed in the Super 8 before. Not the best in the world, but not bad.

    True, not the best, but it is very convenient to the stadium.

    Have you checked out the Baker Motel? It is an older property so the prices might be better and is close to the campus. Don't know anyone who has stayed there recently. Here is the link:

    http://www.bakermotel.com/reservation.htm

    You can see from the pictures that it is not a "new" property, but it should be safe.

    Before I would consider driving to College Station I would check out the motels in Madisonville. It is closer, and freeway all the way. There might be something lower priced there. Other than the obvious Motel 6 and Motel 8 I do not know if any others are "budget" places. But I would think you should be able to find a place for under $100 per night. Good luck. If I think of anything else I will let you know.

    thank you.....I did look at that place. Is a bit dated. May just have to bite the bullet and pay 150.00 a night.

    I truly appreciate your help. Linda

    party at LULU's - mid June - details to follow

    Isn't it strange that after a bombing everyone blames the Crazy Azz bomber(s), but after a shooting the problem is the gun?

    Gotta find it first. But if you do please refill the pool with water before you leave...beer's not good for the liner for extended periods of time.
