I am heading for the swap meet in South Bend for the first time,my question is about Motels .is the motel 6 near sasco recommended or is there another motal near sasco or the fairgronds that you could reccomend?



Thanks Buck Buchanan --Jacksonville Fl.


There is a Motel 6 in Roseland just outside of downtown. It is not a bad drive and is a straight shot to downtown. I do recall the Motel 6 being on the rough side and guite old though.

Roseland, isn't that the nudist place that Bob Palma told me about?

I cant afford $42. But I can afford $21. Anyone need a rommie?

I am also going for the first time.Is there a known place to go for dinner? You know...cheep beer cheep food cheep wo..thrills. I know in york there are prefered places to dine and drink. Fess up guys. Where are the water holes in south bend? if the info is good I buy the second and fourth round.Rich

There are tons of motels and I haven't stayed in a bad one yet. The thing to remember about South Bend is that while hundreds of people come in for the Studebaker swap meet, there are enough motels to handle the tens of thousands that show up for Notre Dame events like Homecoming and Graduation. I'm sure you can find a crappy motel in a bad section of town, but I have managed to. We've never made reservations. We just hit one of the discount chains where we see a few Studes parked.

I think this is it?
