<p>We also stay at the Long Island Marriott. We have been going there 3 years now and have reservations for Graduation Weekend (It does come quick). Our first parents weekend she wanted down time – we came back to the hotel after the football game and ate in the sports restaurant there – we sat and talked for about three hours – they did not rush us out even on a Saturday night. There were many other Plebes there (BTW – this is far enough out so that they don’t have to be in uniform). After having breakfast in the hotel (comes with the room) the next morning we went to the city and saw some sites (it was also West Points Parents Weekend so there were plenty of uniforms of all varieties around). We ended the afternoon getting sandwiches at Katz deli (lower east side) and taking them back to the hotel. We watched a movie and she napped until it was time to go back to campus. Biggest thing is don’t plan to much – they need to decompress.</p>
