<p>I have orientation Monday morning and I’ll be catching a flight Sunday night and need to stay at a hotel. Is there a hotel next to campus that is walking distance?</p>
<p>The Blackwell is actually on campus, next to the business college, and there are a few hotels near campus, but not really within a reasonable walking distance. A taxi from a cheaper hotel may be less expensive than staying at the Blackwell.</p>
<p>These hotels are located across the river from and south of campus:</p>

<p>The Blackwell is very expensive and often booked up—I would definitely call ahead and not just expect to get a room. Better to be safe than sorry</p>
