Y'all were VERY smart to go to Connecticut in July, because Hartford in January ain't nothin' nice!
My pointers:
Stay at the Marriott if you can. It's definitely the most convenient hotel to the convention center, by far!
Pack snacks and beverages. The food situation is far from plentiful, so you want to be prepared in case you need a snack, and it's always good to bring your own bottled water instead of paying inflated hotel/convention center prices. The convention center was pretty good with having a hot dog cart and snack stand available outside of session, but I definitely prefer having my own than paying $1.25 for a $.50 bag of chips.
If you're looking for a quick mall excursion, check out the Westfarms Mall. They have a ton of great shops and restaurants.
