Some Comments:
On campus (Carey House, Kopp House, Becker Apt) options are quite nice and convenient to the meeting site (see campus map below). If someone rents Carey House, good option for after work get together. Carey House (2 bedrooms, kitchen) and Kopp House (1 bedroom one sofa bed and kitchen) are on the waterfront and can house more than one person. If an on-campus option is your pick, we can put you in contact with our business office to reserve. Hilton Garden Inn is quite expensive but next to brewpub if that is of interest. Victorian Inn is adjacent to CBL and lovely bed and breakfast. Holiday Inn kind of sucks (in my opinion) but has lots of rooms.
