Cancun Spring Break Hotels Downtown vs. Hotel Zone for college students?

Q. I am looking to travel to Cancun for 5-6 days for spring break with a friend or two and was wondering whether it would be safer/better/cheaper to stay downtown or in the hotel zone? Also, if anyone has any suggestions as to hotels that are better for college students that aren't too pricey (Oasis Cancun is way out of the question for us) it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

A. Downtown will be cheaper. You will not have hte beach right out of the hotle, but it seems you will be more active after dark than during the day.
Around the bus station you have several options; hotels, bed&breakfast, hostals. There are a couple of 'business' hotels (City Express) that could work as well.

trying to book a hotel in Barcelona for 2 weeks, I have found www.horse21.net is this a good site?
Q. I would like the hotles to be sports related

A. While booking a hotel in Barcelona we always have to make sure that it is a reliable website
Barcelona has many swanky hotels that are cheap and are hygienic
There are very few websites that offer proper support
One of them is listed below
They offer a variety of cheap and good tourist packages in some of the best hotels
Do take a look at them

Has anyone gone to Vegas for New Years?
Q. A few friends and I want to go to Vegas next year for New Years Eve. We would arrive in Vegas a few days before and then stay for a day or two after New Years. Has anyone done this? Where did you stay, how much did it cost and what kind of room was it (single, suite, etc) Where did you go and what did you do on New Years? Was it worth spending the money to stay on over New Years or would you suggest going at a different time? Tell me about your experience. We are interested in starting to plan now with budget and saving up over time, rather then breaking the bank to pay for it all at one time.

A. Staying in Vegas for New Years is a real treat.
We did that about two years ago. We stayed in the Orleans (which is a few blocks off the strip). We had to book for a minimum number of nights (I think three) and the price was holiday rated-about twice the normal.
If you go at that time, don't plan on driving around the strip New Years Eve. It's almost impossible to move around.
I think you and you rfriends would almost do better going to Vegas during a regular week. The hotle rates are really cheap (anywhere from about $35- up) and the strip isn't too crowded.
For us, it was a first time trip at that time and we had fun, but I would not do it again. We will only go to Vegas during the spring or summer before it gets too hot.
Have fun!
