You can try the Best Western at 28th and US 131. 2 miles to the venue.  Or the River Front Hotel on Ann St.  1 mile from the venue.  This is a bit nicer, has a nice bar, and it's on the river!

Not sure about the prices but the closer you get to downtown, the pricier they get.  I know McArter always stays at the Red Roof Inn near 28th st and I-96... about 4 miles from the venue.

Mojo,

There is a Holiday Inn, Hampton and Spring Hill up at Alpine and I-96 for around $100
There is a Baymont and a Quality Inn up at Walker and I-96 for about $65

Marriot's Residence Inn across from River Town Mall behind Red Lobster and within walking distance of the new Cabela's. Only 10 minutes from downtown. The Residence Inn is our favorite stop whenever we travel.

They have free light dinners Monday through Thursdays and very nice breakfasts every morning.

Don't laugh, we took the kids and they rocked Amway at the pool and space museum while I was at the show.  It was quittttttttte. Nice. For a 2 day family chill AND I got to goto the show.

Told you them fireplace building / new bathroom winter projects deposits into the "domestic tranquility fund" ...... fishing and hunting is a withdrawal. gotta balance it brose!!!!!

Harmony at home, harmony on the water, harmony in the woods.  What more could a man ask for ?
