I was going to ask the same question.

There are plenty of hotels, if the game is at Jupiter Games there are a few right there within walking distance.

If its at JPs or Brens they will need rides but there are still plenty of places to stay. We'll get more info soon for these folks.

See the map link in the top right quadrant of the page!

2)Bren's house (shown as a map of a local coffee house for rough location)

Pyg's map location is a bit off. Bren's house is basically east on the Vestal Parkway from Jupiter (about 4 miles).

The Courtyard Binghamton is basically in the same plaza as Jupiter Games.

I was rather enjoying the idea of having s suite or two full of site folks. I was leaning toward the Hampton Inn and Suites. The cost of the rooms for 5 nights will be the real limiter, however.

Of course, I'm in no financial condition to book GenCon and BrenCon in the same week. Possibilities abound.

I put up a link for Jps house (roughly as I don't want to let stalkers find him!).

Getting everyone in the same place would be a good idea!

there are plenty of places around to stay. there is even one in walking distance to the game store.

I will have to pay attention next time I pass it, but I think it is a marriot.
