Where is everyone staying ?

This is my first time doing WMC and im kinda doing it on a budget. Anyone have any places to look at that are good to stay at I just want a clean place to sleep.

Any help ?

no offense intended here, but you're doing it kinda late.

try miami beach north of south beach (around 40th or 70th st). you'll have to pay more for cabs obviously, but save the cash and take the bus. either that or someplace close to downtown. downtown itself will probably be too expensive too. i highly doubt you're gonna find anything cheap in south beach right now, unless you wanna stay at a hostel like someone mentioned a few weeks back.

good luck though.

I am staying somewhere right off of 95 by 79th st exit got a nice hotel with a balcony from Tues-Sunday for $800 flat with taxes and fees. Two queen beds, frige, and microwave.

I live here but didn't want to make the huge trips back to Broward all fucked up every night.

Hostels are your best bet for doing it on a budget, theres a couple in south beach, but I would purchase now if its not too late.

I'm staying on Ocean Drive and 4th street this year

Check out the Castle Beach Club at 5445 Collins. I stayed there last year for $500 total for 5 nights. A lot of the units are owned by individuals, a la the Shelborne. Go ahead and contact the resort and I'm sure they'll put you in touch with the owners who are renting the units.

I'm staying at Ocean and 3rd this year for the same price. WEEEEEE!!!

In all fairness, I just got my hotel last week and there were still a few pretty good deals in downtown (under $200 a night)on hotels.com.

Anyone wanna split a 4 room hostel ?

I just want something on collins ave.

Posted by oldschool420 on Feb-08-2009 23:48:

Staying at a house 15-20 mins away from south beach. Rented a car though as the cost of cabs would add up.

I'm only going out 1 or 2 nights anyways and I'll just cab then.

Not sure where it was rented as my friend did it, but I think it was $360 for the week for a ford expedition.

We are staying in the Doral area on the westside of the airport. It is about 10 minutes downtown and 20 min to Sobe. 2 br with separate living room, full kitchen for $139 a night. We stayed there last year and could play music loud during the day.

There are 9 of us staying in two rooms. Also free parking so that adds up with 3 different cars. Some are flying some are driving down. We will be downtown more during the nights and at SOBE during the day. Not a big deal to drive to me. I don't drink. Other stuff wears off quicker than alcohol so my posse is good. Mainly maripills and baked goods =)

notbad....on the winter music conference site, under travel, theres a code u can use for AVIS.......its much cheaper than anything i found without a code....might want to look into it

I'm at the Castle Beach Club in one of the condos privately owned A bit farther North, especially for my first time, but I got a car rented and I think it'll be ok. Not to mention I have cab fare covered at night time (lucky me)

Anyone else stayed theree?

Thanks... it was way more expensive with Avis actually compared to our rate. Almost $800 after fees and the like for the same size vehicle.

Yep. The only price that changes is for cars and some of the luxury models. The price for full size SUV was still the same.
