[SCG] Buffalo hotel

[airvair]

As I recall, Buffalo downtown was a very difficult place in which to find a low-priced meal. And the parking garage didn't have very good lighting or trailer parking. So I'd be more inclined to think the 'burbs, as  Hank said.

Best someone check all facilities to see what accommodations to our needs that they can supply.

>But, Hank, the event IS downtown and a lot of people want to be as close to the event as possible.  True, there are newer hotels downtown and they ought to be considered but I think that attached, indoor parking ought to be a consideration given that some folks will be bringing collectible cars.  As for me, I've never found downtown Buffalo to be especially dangerous nor do I consider a kitchen in my hotel room to be something desirable.  I'd much prefer to eat out and enjoy some local cuisine.  I do far too much grocery shopping and cooking when I'm at home.
