The Hyatt is sold out.

Two days after posting to the main Arisia site and this livejournal community (in response to a posted question, not as an announcement post as promised, significantly lacking the "hotel" tag). I just got confirmation from innkeeper@arisia.

I am displeased. This may be the first Arisia I miss since I moved to this area.

I tried the overflow hotel once, and determined that it was not worth doing.

Given that it's October and already snowing, I fully expect to get snowed in this year and that 20 minute walk along the Charles will be like having icicles repeatedly shoved up your nose.

I've walked from the 57 bus stop on Comm Ave. to the hotel and back plenty of times (on purpose!), including during the blizzard last year, and that's slightly longer than the walk to TJ's. It can be unpleasant, but if you're reasonably hale and healthy, and have decent boots, it's certainly do-able.

I grew up in NYC a block away from the Hudson. River winds in winter are pretty brutal. I certainly hope you're right and it won't be too bad!
