@rbtsch1951 Thank you for the hotel information. I live 20 miles away but 405 can be brutal. It could take 30 to 90 minutes to get there. My wife no longer drives. So, I might do what you did and stay there a few nights.
If I chose HDR Brachytherapy, I think it is 2 sessions under anesthesia. I will definitely look into hotel option.

There is actually free or greatly discounted overnight stays Supported by a few groups.

The American Cancer Society has a site to help get lodging for Prostate cancer patients.
