Hi, are any of you OOS who interviewed at Suny Downstate? If so, where did you stay for the night before your interview? I don't think the school makes any arrangements with local hotels/inns.
Thanks in advance.

If you don't mind my asking what are your stats? Please pm me if not for a public forum. Thanks.
I'm a Brooklynite, and obviously I would've stayed home. But getting in touch with the school may be a good idea. They may have some rates negotiated for the imterviewees with some hotels in the area. Though I'd recommend something in the City (Manhattan). You know, at this time o the year it will be criminal not to visit the center of the Big Apple. If not Manhattan then downtown Brooklyn would be my choice. It's still a bit of a travel to the Downstate but with mass transit it's no more than 20 minutes.

Call them to set up housing. Then, they will contact you to confirm details. I think the rate is $26/night for double occupancy and $50/night for single. I didn't end up using it.
I stayed in Park Slope in Brooklyn at the Holiday Express. I bid about $100 on priceline and I got it. Nice area, but you'd need to take a cab/subway to the school.
