Deadline for getting a room reservation at this rate is: June 30, 2012

A limited number (50) of rooms are available at the newly renovated Courtyard by Marriott (www.marriott.com/atldc) in downtown Decatur very close to Agnes Scott at the very competitive rate of $119 plus tax.  The hotel is very close to the Decatur MARTA train stop.  Included is free wireless internet and shuttle service to Agnes Scott by arrangement.  Parking is an additional $8 per calendar day.  Because we had to contract to obtain this very low rate we are obliged to fill the rooms as much as possible.  Therefore, we ask that only people who will occupy the room for at least 4 nights make use of this special rate.  Most rooms have two Queen beds (1.52 m wide and 2.03 m long) and are suitable for sharing; about 40% have a single King bed (1.93 m wide and 2.03 m long).

If demand is high for these rooms with the minimum 4 night stay then we may be able to increase our quota if they fill early enough.

NOTICE: The first night (Sat also Fri) there are only Kings available and then for subsequent night only Doubles (twin-two beds).  Try switching rooms after the first night from King to Double.  This necessitates two reservations though.
