More Housing Opportunities!
So, regular readers of this blog might remember that time where Cambridge totally suxed big time with regards to cheap and affordable housing. We recently got an e-mail from Joel, who recommended that people might want to check out the Hostelling International Boston, which offers some mondo cheap beds for people still looking for somewhere simple and spartan to stay while at ROFLCon. Apparently they’re really into group reservations, so feel free to comment on the post if you want to try to set something up with your fellow attendees.
Locationwise, it’s a short walk from the Hynes Convention Center stop on the Boston subway system. From there, you can hop a train for a quick ~15 min ride to the Kendall Square stop, which drops you a short and easy walk where the conference will be.
Edit from Christina: a much easier solution is to go to Massachusetts Ave., the street that the Hynes Convention stop is on anyway, and take the #1 bus that comes by every 10 minutes or so (your stop is Mass Ave. & Newbury St.) (go to the side of the street farther from the hostel and look for the bus stops sprinkled every two blocks or so) until you reach 77 Massachusetts Ave–this lovely building which is one stop or so past the river, which you can reach the conference from. This will save you a lot of pain and suffering and be a lot faster, I promise!
