Accommodation information

At this conference, there are two general options for accommodations.

Dormitory accommodations: The first option is to stay in housing (the Cuicacalli Suites) on the SDSU campus. Some information:

• On-campus housing is reserved through TUG, see option below.
• Prices are below (quite inexpensive).
• The dormitory is apartment-style, so there will be groups of up to 5-6 people sharing a suite: individual bedrooms, two shared bathrooms, and a common area.
• If you have suite-mates in mind (people with whom you'd like to share the suite), please give their names in the comments field at the bottom. Spouses may stay at the standard rates.
• Standard checkin time is noon on July 16 (or later), checkout is 7pm on July 20.
• If you want to stay in the dorm extra nights before or after the conference, that's fine, but we need to know the exact nights so we can inform the university. Please see below.
• Recreational amenities, including a pool (10am-10pm) and bowling alley at the Aztec Recreation Center.
• Much more information is on the campus housing web pages.

Hotel accommodations: The second option is to stay in a hotel near the campus. San Diego has a trolley line serving the campus, and all except the last hotel below are on the trolley (the first two are very close, just a few minutes away; not sure about the others). More information:

• Reservations are made directly with the hotel, not through TUG.
• We have identified some likely hotels (there are plenty of others around, of course): the Marriott Mission Valley, the DoubleTree Mission Valley, the Hilton Mission Valley, the Handlery Hotel, and the Red Lion Hanalei Hotel.
• These hotels have a "SDSU friends and family rate"; please ask for it, just like that. Room availability at this rate is limited. If one hotel has no rooms at this rate available, try the next. The regular room price is substantially higher—except possibly for the Handlery, whose online price may be just fine.
• TUG has no contract or reserved rooms with any of the hotels.
• The hotels are fairly similar in style, i.e., big and generic. The main distinction is that the Red Lion (soon to be Crown Plaza) is not directly on the trolley line; you have to take the Red Lion hotel shuttle to Fashion Valley, then catch the trolley, total time 30-45 minutes. But their prices are currently much lower than the other two.
