2023 IACFS/ME Conference - Stony Brook University Housing 

SBU West Apartment 2

 

The University has changed the building attendees will be housed in from Lauterbur/ Yang to West Apartments Buildings K and E. 

Rooms must be booked by July 9, 2023. We will accept cancellations until July 7. 

CHANGES: 

a. The building is a 13-minute walk to the Conference venue, the Student Activities Center (SAC). Please see this map. The apartments are located in sector A5 and the SAC in sector C4.

b. All rooms are now single rooms with one twin bed each. Six room make up a suite. Each suite has a shared living/ dining area and 2 full bathrooms. There is also a kitchen with refrigerator, microwave, and stove. Pots, pans, plates/ bowls, and utensils are not provided however. Please see this page for building-specific information and the virtual tour for 6-room suites.

c. The price is the same for a single room, US $80 per room per night. However, because of Building K and E only have single beds in each room, room mates are no longer possible. If you have already booked a room to be shared and thus the charge was split, we will not charge you more. You and your roommate will now be in the same suite but each have a separate room.

Please contact us at iacfsmeorg@gmail.com if you have questions or concerns.
