I got a sick condo on midbeach in a real spiffy condo building right in the beach. Air bnb came through for me 150 a night. The usual condos I stay "cynergi" were sold out in oct.

As for where to eat, I love kush in wynwood jimmy kitchen in wynwood and pride and joy bbq also in wynwood. There are also great spots on 2nd st for the cheap. I highly recommend wynwood for food as it's real good hipster shit fairly priced. South beach is crap food for tons of money and downtown is hard to find good food for a fair price

I'm gonna try that mega bus one time. For that price u can't beat it.

Staying downtown as all of the events I'll attend are there. Burger Bar off Brickell is a dope spot. Don't eat a lot during WMC but there are plenty of food trucks/ dives to grab great Cuban/ seafood.

Must be nice to have lived a life in which you only used a bus once, lol.

Really though, busses aren't bad at all. My experiences using them in Europe were actually worse than in the States, but that doesn't mean I won't use them again. Sure, the lines can be annoying, bus companies can be unorganized, and there's a chance you'll experience delays, but it's not that bad if you're looking for a deal and aren't in a rush. Good time to catch up on reading, sleep, etc.

I've used MegaBus multiple times without issue; I prefer them to Greyhound for sure.

I don't know. I've been riding a bus since I was a little kid going between New York, Buffalo, Philly, etc. Perhaps I'm just used to it and know what to expect.

If not for anything else, you'll run into an entertaining cast of characters

if you knew me youd know how far this was from the truth.

im just not a fan of taking a bus on a long journey. as public transportation, theyre vital.

i can never sleep on transportation. well no im lying. i went out thurs to see digweed here but had to work fri. i of course drank too much and knocked out on my last train and actually made a complete round trip. but i still made it home with time to shower and got to work on time.

i get all the reasons youre doing it, i just personally vowed to never again. that was the bus ride from hell. ive almost considered doing it again but i just think about it for a second and decide against it.

no worries buddy.

Renting a condo in SoBe. Only way to do it. More space, more privacy, and can prepare our own food. Walking distance to most of the parties we're going to, plus shopping and restaurants, but not so close to the action that we can't get proper sleep.

I've stayed RIGHT on Ocean Drive before and that was fun, but I def prefer something more quiet now that I'm older.

So many good places to eat on Espanola Way!

I got in on the condo renting a little too late this year. All the reasonable places were gone a ways back now.

For the WMC-goer who hasn't locked down a place yet, that person can expect to pay upwards of $350 for a decent place in DT Miami or the beach. My own dilemma inspired me to write the bit about possibly staying at a place at the airport. With it being such a public trans-friendly hub as well as lower prices and bigger/modern rooms, I felt it was a viable alternative.
