Will I have a problem getting a studio near the Hospitality House for marathon weekend 7 months out?

I was able to get 2 studios for marathon weekend near HH in 2011 7 months out.

Yes.

Near HH may be iffy.

SmartGuy that's great! I wish I could be certain I could do the same.

D&B and Chuck thanks. I've started looking into getting my reservation earlier via an OKW owner.

You are too late already. You'll need to go with non-HH area if you want anything.

Oooh, ok gotcha. I was wondering if your simple "Yes." meant that they were already gone. Thanks for letting me know, that makes things simpler. Bummer though.

So do you think any studios will be available at 7 months?

Just as info, depending on when you want to leave, you might still be able to get an OKW HH studio.

I checked just now, out of curiosity. If your departure is on Sunday you can still book a HH area studio. If you need Sunday night as well, it is wait listed.

I'm running in the Half, and we are staying the whole week leading up to the marathon but departing on sunday. Not sure if that works for you, but it is an option as of 6:30AM today.

Thanks for the info Ted! That sheds some more light on the availability. Unfortunately I do need the Sunday. Normally for my race trips I depart on Sunday but this time I'm doing the Goofy so I'll need my room after the full. I wish there was a late check-out option so that I COULD still depart that evening...I only need the room until maybe 3pm. Oh well.

Update: I ended up renting points from an OKW owner (hi to my renter if you see this! ) I've got a studio near the hh for my first two nights, then a regular studio the third...waitlisted for one near the hh. Fingers crossed it comes through, but it will be ok if it doesn't. Yay!
