The amenties were lacking as well, although the bed *was* nice and comfortable.The Hyatt seemed the most gamer friendly -- nice big tables set out for gamers, jugs of water and plastic cups to drink from, the Subway and McDonalds downstairs kept longer hours (or longer than I would have expected, anyway -- don't know what they normally do).Embassy Suites seemed ok, and tolerant of extra-curricular activities.  I was only there briefly for Canadiana and a game at Old One's suite, so I don't know if they did anything special.  I don't think they had as much room as the Hyatt, so laying out lots of tables and such probably wouldn't happen.Given one year's experience, I will probably try and stay at the Hyatt next year.</blockquote>
