Find a property with fairly low rates (it's really not hard), and either get an online meeting quote (if they participate in that system), or else submit a request and ask. They'll get back to you fairly quickly.

It doesn't take a whole lot of work...
Not to mention the fake demand could easily exceed the limited availability and causes inconvenience to folks with real needs for these same resources. Properties cannot oversell meeting rooms unlike rooms for accommodations. This is one of those situations where if you want something, you have to work for it. I have real business needs for these meeting rooms and the nights are gravy which I hate to lose due to blatant abuse.
