'''Accomodations update (13/3/11)'''
Some hotel information is available at the [http://ceibaljam.org/drupal/?q=node/1124 ceibalJAM] site. The hotels are listed in order of cost from lower to higher. All have wifi and include breakfast in the price. It could be fun if we decided to all stay at the same place while in Montevideo. Feel free to make comments about which ones you prefer. Is there someone who would like to organize this or should we just all do it on our own? There are links below including some to the Trip Advisor site where you can read reviews.

Caryl: I like the hostel best because of the kitchen. The Hotel Astral sounds like a good choice as well.

ACCOMMODATIONS?
Started checking accommodations availability for dates 04/29/11 to 05/08/11. Most double rooms in HI Hostels are already taken. Plenty of dorm space still available at very moderate prices ($12-$15/pp/nt). Some B&B's still have space, at generally higher rates. Some have wifi available. Most include breakfasts (continental), Hostels have kitchens where you can fix what you like.
<i>It would probably be a good idea to make a few decisions very soon so that people can make reservations while rooms are still available. </i>
To proceed we need to know:
* Where will the main meeting place be?
* Do the "out-of-towners" want to try to stay in the same place?
* What kind of public transport is available?
* Where will the weekend events be held? Please post a map link.
