Still have nowhere to stay for the Superbowl? Try the convent.
In case you still haven't booked your Phoenix accommodations or were hoping for a last minute steal for the Superbowl, now might be your time to strike. The sisters of Our Lady of Guadalupe Monastery have decided to rent out a few rooms in their convent for football fans, at the palatable rate of only 250 dollars/night (which isn't bad compared to some of the hotels charging upwards of 1000$).Tenants are naturally limited on their choice of "extracurricular activities," as stipulated by the nuns, including no rowdiness or drinking, but if you can get over the rules it's not a bad deal for the weekend.
Searching through Kayak and Sidestep for "Our Lady of Guadalupe Monestery" in Phoenix, I wasn't able to find any availability -- you might have better luck calling them to check their calendar. At least the rooms look decent, and I bet they're a hell of a lot cleaner than half of of the hotels out there.
The sisters claim that they're going to use the money to pay off some property that they purchased. I wonder if you can write off the hotel as a tax deduction?

NY GIANTS FANS, I found Sheraton WILD HORSE PASS RESORT & SPA, the GIANTS' SUPER BOWL HOTEL, (only 4 rooms left) at http://www.Superbowl-Rooms.com , they also off other LUXURY, PATRIOT'S TEAM VILLAS and 5 stars ACCOMODATIONS. Take a look at http://www.14SB.com and you’ll find the cheap lodging too! BUYERS should know that there is a choice but the early bird gets the worm and the BEST DEALS! HAPPY SUPERBOWL XLII
