For those that don't know yet, the Wellesley Inn and Suites is not going to have a shuttle. There were a couple of other Hotels that won't have shuttle service either. Might want to check with your hotel and make sure they will have shuttle service. Just a heads up, found out today.

Hi, Tracy,
The Wellesley is about 3-4 miles (not blocks) from the pool. We took a cab from the hotel to the pool. The cab driver got lost, even with the meet directions that I gave him. It took us about 30-45 minutes to get there.
I spoke to the meet director and complained that a shuttle was promised at this hotel. He said they didn't have enough folks staying there. Of course, he didn't know that John and I were staying there because we didn't ask for the USMS block of rooms. We got it cheaper with Orbitz. Anyway, he arranged for us to change to a hotel with shuttle - the Somerset Marriott. We will check out of the Wellesley tomorrow.
