Thanks for heads up. I talked to a few owners and made sure to let them know it was for comic con which is why they jacked up their prices as they did not realize it was that week. The one I got I was able to negotiate him down to a more reasonable rates for the event week. So he is well aware! Hopefully he doesn't cancel last minute that would be a nightmare.
Congratulations! The advice that everyone has given is completely accurate; I was one of those unfortunate souls who booked an AirBnB last year and while the owner had already increased their prices for comic con (and I made them aware that that was my reason for staying) they cancelled on me and asked me again for more money. Because of that I would be very careful of booking a place so early, even if the person has already increased their price! I would also suggest checking in with the owner every so often, as they may plan on being out of town closer to when the date arrives. That was another unfortunate mishap that happened to me with another listing I tried to book which left me searching for a place two weeks before the con.
A co-worker of my wife lives in downtown, a short walking distance from the Convention center. They are looking to rent out either a room, or their entire condo for Comic-Con. They've never done this before, and unfortunately refuse to let me use the condo for free, even for a few days :PA few questions:* what's the going rate for a room-for-rent downtown?* what's the going rate for a condo-for-rent downtown?* how long is the ideal rental time-span: Wed - Sun? Tuesday-Monday? A few Monday-Monday week?While I have unfortunately not known anyone willing to let me use their condo downtown for free, I am fortunate enough to live in San Diego and have never participated or looked into getting a place for Comic-Con. I'm just wondering on thoughts from out-of-towners on this.Thanks
Forum Housekeeping:Merged this new thread with our already established thread on "Renting a condo or AirBNB for SDCC? (Post advice or questions here!)." Hopefully this will help get some more answers and replies to the questions asked.^__^d
Thanks; I saw this thread not long after I posted and was trying to find my post to delete/move. I swear I'm not regularly this hard to clean up after :P
