When Should I Book my Hotel by, and Where Should I Stay?

[azbuff]

The Millenium isn't too far from Pearl Street and may be the closest hotel to the stadium, but I'm sure it's close to sold out for the weekend. The rooms are essentially glorified Hampton Inn rooms, but it's an okay place if you can get in.

check vacation rentals for the best value and a sick place, especially if you are with a group.

If you are into it try couchsurfing.com

You can't couch surf as a group of 6 30 - 35 year olds.

Millenium Harvest House? Never stayed there but they're a lot of activities before the game.

probably the best option for a visiting fan if available.

agree. optimal, to me, is the Boulderado....but Millennium is easy and close. there's some kind of Comfort Inn remodeled old motor lodge that's next to Naropa on Arapahoe....that's probably the closest...but, it does the trick if you want to be close to Folsom, downtown, with no frills. my pops stays at the Silver Saddle Motel or Foot of the Mountains motel (one of them, forget) at the mouth of the canyon, basically right on Eben Fine Park...locally owned...mos def no frills but unless it's a 4/5 star experience....hotel is just a bed and a shower to me. i'd rather save the coin and spend it on dinner. not the shortest, but easy and pleasant walk along the creek path to campus and downtown. and rolling out a few brews at Eben Fine can't be beat.

That's what I was going to say, as long as I'm traveling alone - decent mattress with no bedbugs and consistently at least warm shower. An Econolodge in San Diego where the bathroom door hit the toilet was pushing it, though.

This guy is a cal fan, right? I say, **** him and his mother.

what's his mother look like?

for a group of 30ish guys on a guy's weekend, i am not sure either the boulderado or julien fit the bill.

harvest house or marriott, i would think, are more in line with the activities likely planned.

For Maxer and his boys the Mountain Air Ranch sounds about right.
