<p>where is the cheapest and neariest place to stay around BU?</p>
<p>My dad and I are staying at a motel 6 in framingham like 30minutes from campus lol its only like 50 dollars a night.
My dad's a pretty cheap guy, I'm not sure how he'll pay for BU.</p>
<p>There are several Boston area hotels that offer a BU discount rate. Ask when you call or check if the list is on the BU admissions visitor site.</p>
<p>Yeah my momma and I are having to stay like a 30-40 min T ride away from the campus because its the only cheap hotel left... did you guys know that the Boston Marathon is the weekend of the April 14 open house? YEAH .... so if you haven't booked a hotel yet, I would strongly suggest booking one b/c the Boston Marathon is like one of the biggest events in the world, and there are very few hotel rooms available--EVERYONE will be in that city that weekend... HAVE FUN!</p>
<p>It seems like everyone is going to the April 14 open house too. That's going to be nuts! Im glad I'm leaving tomorrow for the 7th.</p>
<p>I'm going to stay at a Hostel 7 min drive from BU. If you don't mind sleeping in a room with at least three other strangers, than the hostel is the cheapest you can get. I'm staying for 30 a night.</p>
<p>I love how I had no idea the Marathon was the 15th...ugh to me finding a place to stay on the 14th x__x.</p>
<p>Try looking at hotels north of Boston. There's a commuter rail that goes into Boston from a lot of these cities.</p>

<p>The schedule and map is on the site above.</p>
<p>The marothon is on the 17th, not the 15th. It's always on a Monday...hence "Marathon Monday". That also happens to be tax day for everyone but Massachusetts.</p>
<p>lol..sorry ryan..I guess I didn't hear the guy properly. I know nothing of this marathon =x.</p>
<p>ohh yes, marathon day is absolutely RIDICULOUS..especially for me because my town = the START of the marathon. which means 50684509864506 people flood our boring little town for a day, pee on our lawns, and leave mounds of trash EVERYWHERE, hahaha fun stuff yo</p>
