Could any of you native connecticutians ;) help out a jersey girl??

I have 3 options for hotels on the 27th....all seem to be close enough to the venue. If you had to choose which would you stay at?

The Marriot---Columbus Blvd.
The Hilton---Trumbull St.
The Goodwin---Haynes St.

thanks in advance......:D

    I think I stayed at the Super 8 when I was there in 98. It was pretty close and full of Jammers. Is the tailgating still as crazy as it was in 98? It was like woodstock there that year.
    mmmmm, it does go well with the chicken.....delicious again peter

    its a few (5ish or so) blocks away, thats where we're staying
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    Holiday Inn Express on Brainard Road, 2 miles south of the venue. $90/night and it is a newly renovated property. As a pre-tailgate party I will be having Mohito's by the outdoor pool.

    i used to work as a production runner for a theater in CT (Oakdale Theatre) and remember making many runs into harford picking up bands.

    the goodwin isnt bad, but its not too close, and it tends to be pricey. there isnt a place to tailgate there, its right in the middle of down town.

    The Crown is much closer, maybe 2 blocks away. it is probobly your best bet. there are a few spots to tailgate on the way into the venue. but remember...hartford "outlawed" tailgating. the last i knew the venue didnt allow it, but private lots did. look for me at the BMW parking lot.
