What are the areas around each park like? I'm going to be travelling alone, and although I don't like to admit it, I don't do so well in "rough" neighborhoods. The point of the trip is a job interview in Princeton, NJ, but I know hotels there will probably be through the roof, and I have a very limited budget. Any suggestions on good, clean, cheap hotels in decent areas?
Have both sides of the Chiller at SFGAdv been working lately? I remember seeing something that all of Batman's LIMs were removed to make Robin work, or something like that - any truth to that or are both working? Any other steady closures this season at either park?
And if anyone knows any shortcuts to either park or whatnot, can ya email those my way? Thanks in advance - figure if I'm gonna be out there anyway, I may as well make a weekend out of it!

As for hotels, I'd suggest checking out the Days Inn in Freehold.

the areas around Dorney Park is pretty nice. Its on 309 right off the North East extention. Not a bad area. As for SFGA its in the woods. Not much around it. Few miles up are outlets and some other stores. Not many homes just some house back out of the way. You'll be fine! In the park of SFGA is the scarest part!

Thanks for the tips so far, my Dad's actually gonna try and get me a discount on hotels through his company in Princeton.

Well, unless you cross the Rankin Bridge, you're ok around Kennywood, and even that area's rather harmless anymore. Ok, if you're saying its nice compared to Kennywood, I should be just fine.
Comin out by myself cause #1 its for a job interview and #2 I'm 21, so my friends are all still poor college students (even though I've been working summers since I started at good jobs and have enough cash to do trips like this) and my girlfriend's dad wasn't too keen about the one nite of Coastermania, I don't think he'd like 2 nites in New Jersey ... I did California by myself, I can do New Jersey and east PA ;)
