Does anyone have Tucson lodging tips (or "secret" places/deals) for the attendee on a budget? I'm considering going for the week of AGTA/GJX/etc, but even the "cheaper" hotel prices (at least, those listed on AGTA's page) are a little hard to stomach. (Any female attendees wanna split a room? I'm not a freak, and I promise I don't snore! :wink: )

I'm just in the planning stage... or maybe I should call it the "I already feel left-out" stage... open to any suggestions and recommendations! :mrgreen:

I stay @ Hotel Congress. It's around $130 + tax per night for a double room. The owners are super nice! It fills up quickly though....

Thanks for the recommendation! Probably should have asked this weeks ago, they're all full for the dates I want. Too bad. Next time I'll book earlier!
