My cousin is still leaning towards the YMCA at $85 a night. What should I say to convince her that is a bad idea and to shell out the money for a decent place like the Ameritania? I'll probably be researching that Priceline forum for the next couple of days.

I checked out the Y site. The locations look decent and the rooms look like a nice hostel. It really just depends on how old you guys are and what your travel standards are. When I travelled in college, I was all for the cheapest possible option that didn't totally suck. As I got older, my standards have changed. For me now, $100/night more for a much nicer room is a no-brainer. For me in college, $100/night more for a nicer room would have been the most ridiculous thing imaginable.

Is your cousin hot?
