Greetings, MiniMerlin-ers! I know that many of you were interested in information about parking in the area of the hotel, and my contact at the hotel was kind enough to provide it.

kerryblaze has helpfully pointed us toward this parking lot:
http://www.philapark.org/parkinglocator/garagedetails.aspx?FacilityID=143Which offers a flat-rate of $5 per day for the weekend!! Daily rates are more, so you'll pay more on Friday for your parking, but this is a great deal compared with the other lots cited! =D
The hotel valet parking rate is $35/day, for comparison (no oversized vehicles).
Again, Philly natives! If you know of cheaper parking alternatives (anyone got a driveway we can use? *lol*), please let us know!!
