I've managed to get a room, (2 beds, I believe, but bring your sleeping bag and we'll sneak you in past security if there's lots of you} about a half mile from the Con. It's a little too soon to be making anyone any promises, but if you're interested in sharing, I'm down with that. I'm at the Holiday Inn Ranch Bernardo. I've booked for the 11th to the 15th. No free breakfast or anything, but it's within walking or a cheap cab fare. Email me at [email protected] if you're down. I'm volunteering this year, so I'll be there for the duration. Cheers!

Here's the plan. I have a confirmed reservation at the Marriott Marquis for 4 nights, 7/11-7/14.

Made the last minute decision to come down. Now I need roomies!
Name: Aurra
Hotel: private condo
Days Booked: Wed. - Mon.
Price: $350 per person (for all 5 nights)
Smoking/Drinking: Smoking - No, Drinking - fine
Spaces Left: 2 (condo sleeps three)
Preferences and Description:
Condo is within walking distance to the Con - though a bit of a longer walk than some. But only a couple of blocks away from the shuttle if you have lots of stuff to carry. Has the benefit of being a full condo with kitchen, so might be able to save a couple of bucks on food. I'm looking for two people to take the bedroom - queen bed, and your own bathroom. Private and quiet! I'm looking for female roomies, or possibly a couple. Looking for people who are tidy and respectful of others. Seriously, I just want to sleep at night! I'm fine if you're into cosplay - there should be sufficient room to store stuff. Myself - I'm female, early 30's, who is heading down for NerdHQ.

Editing this post as we are now looking to transfer our reservation!
Name: Chaka!
Hotel: Holiday Inn San Diego Bayside. There are two double beds!
Days Booked: July 11-15
Price: We were offered a spot in a different room with more people in it and are looking to transfer our reservation to someone else. We paid a $400 deposit on it and are looking for $240 to recoup at least some of the deposit. So your cost would be $240 to us for the deposit, and then once you get to the con, two nights at $179 to the hotel, for a total of $595 before tax for the weekend. Not a bad price!
Smoking/Drinking: N/A
Spaces Left: Whole room will be yours!
Preferences and Description:
Basically it's just a regular hotel room with two double beds at the Holiday Inn Bayside, which is apparently about 5 miles from the convention center, but is on the shuttle route. We are looking for someone to take over our reservation so we don't lose the entire deposit we paid on it. PM me if you are interested! First come first served as we are looking to get rid of it pretty quickly!
Hotel: Looking for a room/any accommodation for myself. The closer the better.
Days Needed: Weds-Sun
Price Range: $0-$350 for all 4 nights. The cheaper the better.
Smoking/Drinking: Smoking - Just quit, hurray for me, Drinking - Don't Care
Preferences and Description:
I'm 22, I have a 4 day badge + Preview night, I was under the impression for months that I had a spot in someones room only to find out this past week that his room is full and now I am stuck with no place to stay during the con. Anyway, I am not picky, as long as I have a place to sleep, shower and store my swag for the weekend, then I am a happy camper. I am taking the train so I wont have a car, so preferably something close or with transportation/shuttle to the convention center. I'm not annoying, I don't think. I do enjoy meeting new people and hanging out. I enjoy the social scene but I know my limits. Oh and most importantly, I don't stink. Thanks guys!
This could work, I just need somebody to room with. If somebody is willing to do this deal with me PM me.
Hello! One of the people in my room had to back out last minute due to a work conflict so we have 1 space left! I have a room reserved at a Marriott Courtyard about 20 minutes from the convention center. There are currently 4 people in the room (3 males, 1 female). We are looking for 1 more (2 can be discussed but it will be pretty cramped). The room is reserved from Wednesday night until Sunday. The cost for all 4 nights based on 5 people in the room is ONLY $153! So it is a good deal. I will have transportation to/from the convention center. If you carpool, I ask that you do contribute a small amount for gas as well as help to split parking fees downtown. If this will work for you, email me asap and we will get you in!
Hello, just wondering if anyone on here is in need of a roommate <snip>put this in the correct thread so more people will see it <grin>
So now that CCI 2012 is over, I am wondering how all the room shares worked out? I'm thinking about doing it for 2013 and I'm curious of others' opinions. Feel free to PM me if you have something negative to say that you don't want public. ;)
Thanks! I will probably be in the "host" position, as I have a junior suite at the Hyatt that I won't be able to afford if I can't share the cost with others. And I snore a bit too so I'm not holding that against anyone :)
So given that, I'm a little bit nervous to have to rely on others who may decide to back out at the last minute, leaving me holding the tab for the entire thing. If you shared your room with others, how did you work it out? Were their names added to the reservation? How did they pay you? Anything other relevant info?

^ You know you just got every guy in here ready to be your roommate for next year right?
It certainly does take some blind trust to stay w/ random strangers. Just be smart about it and make sure you get real info and always let someone know where you'll be at all times...
