I'm kinda wondering the same thing. Would it be best to stay away from Huntington Beach area because of the Open going on that weekend? — Paul Atomic Mosquitos Bug music for bug people is here!

skeeter Joined: Feb 27, 2006 Posts: 2063 Virginia, USA	Posted on Apr 19 2010 03:22 PM Yeah, there seems to be quite a few places around Cypress or Los Alamitos, I guess because Disneyland isn't too far away. I may end up going that route. — Paul Atomic Mosquitos Bug music for bug people is here! Killers from Space Top

Posted on Apr 19 2010 05:41 PM There is a Marriot Hotel pretty close to the starting gate, and a motel down the street (Katella) called the Turf Motel, there are literally thousands of motels in OC. I would suggest inland a ways to save some money. But not too close to Disneyland or Knotts berry farm, as the price may start to go back up a bit, as you get close to them. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

Posted on Apr 23 2010 11:44 AM Been working on getting shows before and after the convention weekend for Space Rangers and Wadadli Riders. sorry for no updates on the surf jam, Fender plant tour, and the line up for the Fri. and Sun. show. I will have all of this info soon, and post it. so keep an eye out for it. — Jeff(bigtikidude) Top

It'd be great if we could all stay at either the same place or at least in close vicinity, that way we could carpool. Any thoughts on this? — Jamie SSS Agent #181 Cartoons drenched in reverb!

echobeach Joined: May 21, 2007 Posts: 220 Redland City, Australia	Posted on Apr 23 2010 04:18 PM One man and his dog per pickup truck here in Brisbane. On a more serious note I found the Staybridge Suites on Manchester Avenue, Anaheim ,a good place to stay. Good rooms ,all you can eat breakfast included in tarriff. Walking distance to Disneyland, Garden Walk Center, Bestbuy, and the Block at Orange. Avis and Hertz are a 5min walk. http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&q=katella+avenue+anaheim&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=Katella+Ave,+Anaheim,+CA,+USA&gl=au&ei=ZxDSS-XMF42QtgPo2fzECQ&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CAcQ8gEwAA http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/sb/1/en/hotel/laxad Top

Yep, avoid HB, Anaheim, and Buena Park... Stanton too, because motels there are sketchy. — "Turn the knob to 10 and break it off!" -Baja Marty Top

PolloGuitar Joined: Feb 26, 2006 Posts: 5090 San Francisco	Posted on Apr 24 2010 02:14 AM I have to put in a plug for priceline.com. I have always had great success using the "name your own price" function. Crappy motels in O.C. go for $70 a night-- for that same price I got rooms at the ****Fairmont Resort in Newport Beach for next weekend. Look at the prices for the hotels they offer, pick one you like and then enter a price 50-60% lower. — Buy Speed of Dark @ Bandcamp Buy Spin the Bottle @ Bandcamp My Blog- Euro Tour Blog Pool Boys on Spotify INSTAGRAM Frankie & The Pool Boys on FB Pollo Del Mar on FB DJ Frankie Pool Boy on North Sea Surf Radio Top
