\textbf{ 8. Rooming/Hotel considerations (Range of facilities/cost):}  \subsection{If we host the meeting at a major hotel}  Unfortuantely, the greater Boston area has a very high level of hotel pricing.  The discount rate for the Marriott is about \$250 U.S with 50 rooms available for US Government employees at \$198. here is a second  hotel, a Marriott, attached to the convention center. Boston features many 

In addition we expect to be able to reserve a small block of rooms (25-50) at MIT. If the meeting is at the Marriott Cambridge those will be very convenient.   \subsection{If we host the meeting at BU, primary housing cost are very low:}  2018 Overnight Accommodations rates:  Air Conditioned, Suite-Style:   $85 per person per night, single occupancy bedroom, shared bathroom (4 persons per suite)   Beds come made with linen and bath towels, and basic amenities.  In addition, breakfast will be available in the dinning Hall at ~ \$8.35 per person per day  2016 Overnight Parking Pass:\$20 per car per night and \$15 per day.  We understand some people do not like dorm living no matter how new or air conditioned. So we would arrange for a block of 50-100 rooms at the Cambridge Hyatt directly across the river from BU. These would run about $250.  \textbf{ 9.
