Update: Found a room!

Looking for a room share.

Name: Andy
Hotel Area/Name of Hotel: Preferably Downtown
Days: Thursday and Friday (2 Days)
Price Per Night: $75-150 (Depending on how many are sharing the room)
Smoking/Drinking: No
Spaces: 1 (Just me)

Preferences and Description:
Age Preference of Roommates: 21+ or any mature adult(s)
Gender Preference of Roommates: Preferably All Male

Include a brief description about yourself: I am an adult male in my late 20's and this will be my 5th SDCC. I am flying solo this year since my friends are either getting married, having kids or are just flat broke. I struck out with the hotel lotto and didn't get a wait-list email this year, so I am looking for a room to share for just Thursday and Friday. Like many of us, I only really need a room to store my stuff, refresh and maybe catch a couple of hours of sleep - I travel light so I wouldn't be taking up much space. I'll only be attending 2 days this year, but I'll be making the most of my time there. I will be camping out at the Hall H line at least one if not both nights and would be more than willing to help you camp out as well! I have attended previous Conan shows and Funko Fundays, and will be looking to score passes for this year as well. I also try to go for exclusives like Hasbro, Lego, Funko and art prints. All of us spend a lot of time and effort into making this trip possible, so you can count on me to help you make it the SDCC experience possible!

Additional preferences for roommates: Would love to share a room with someone who is mature, clean and respectful - you can expect the same from me.

Feel free to PM me!

LOOKING FOR A ROOM SHARE

Name: VGC
Hotel Area/Name of Hotel: Manchester Grand Hyatt, Marriott Marquis, Hard Rock, Omni, Hilton Gaslamp
Days: July 18-22 (although I'm willing to accept any part of that time frame minimum 2 nights)
Price Per Night: I'm willing to pay up to $400 for the total of the stay.
Smoking/Drinking: Yes to either. I drink. I don't smoke cigarettes, but don't mind smokers as long as there's no ash everywhere.
Spaces: I'd prefer no more than 5 to a room, unless it's a suite. It's just me looking for a room.

Preferences and Description:
Age Preference of Roommates: 21+
Gender Preference of Roommates: co-ed
Include a brief description about yourself: I'm female, age 30. I cosplay, but for SDCC, I won't be bringing costumes that take up too much space. I'll likely bring one large suitcase full of costumes and clothes and one smaller suitcase to bring swag back. I'll be up every morning to go to the hall right when they open and I plan on going out partying every night. I'll be back in the room in the middle of the day to nap.
Additional preferences for roommates: I don't care if you're male or female, as long as you're respectful. Messy is fine with me, as long as I have my spot for my luggage, I can work out of that. I'd prefer people that like to go out to parties and wouldn't mind me joining, but I'm respectful if you're not and I'm fine going out on my own.

LOOKING FOR A ROOMMATE (OR 3)

Name: Vivian!
Hotel Area/Name of Hotel: U.S. Grant (0.7 m away from convention center)
Days: July 18-22
Price Per Night: Total is $1395, to be divided by # of occupants
Smoking/Drinking: drinking ok, smoking outside only
Spaces: 1 king size bed. Looking for up to 3 roomies

Preferences and Description:
Age Preference of Roommates: Just no children, please. I am 30, if that matters
Gender Preference of Roommates: no preference, really
Include a brief description about yourself: I'm a cosplayer, but I never do armor, so I don't take up much space. I do travel with one large suitcase and a carryon backpack to SD (since I fly from good old Florida). This will be my 2nd SDCC, but I've been attending cons for about 5 years. Super easygoing, fairly quiet, one of those extroverted introverts. You may not see much of me. I get up pretty early to prep for the con (usually about an hour and a half or two hours before doors open), go back to the room at the end of the con day for a shower/change of clothes, then head right out afterwards. Then it's back once the shenanigans are over for sleeping and a repeat the next day. I am super respectful of quiet times and personal space. P.S. huge Whovian and Marvel fan, but I dabble in several other fandoms  ;)
Additional preferences for roommates: Just be good peoples! If you are messy, keep it contained.

Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks, and cheers!

 :) LOOKING FOR CONDO ROOMMATES (I have a condo and some roommates, looking for 1 or 2 more)  :)

Name: Paloma
Location: I have secured and paid for a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo through VRBO on 15th and J in San Diego.
Days: Wednesday, July 18th through Sunday, July 22nd
Price Per Night: The total cost for the condo is $2,294.08, inclusive of service fees and cleaning fee. We are looking to add 1-2 more onto our number so that your cost would be somewhere between $574-458 for the entire period. We are willing to consider people coming for some of that time, but we don't really want to have to deal with having to calculate a multitude of different costs for each person, so if you want us to calculate your time down to the hour, we're not the crew for you.  :P
Smoking/Drinking: Most of the partying, if any, will be done outside of the condo, but there will be some smoking done on the balcony/out the window and maybe some light drinking in the house. We're responsible, reasonable, and fun adults who will take your comfort into consideration so just let us know what you're okay with. All in all, we'll want to keep the condo clean and smoke free to get the deposit back, so nothing out of control will be happening in there.
Spaces: There are two queen beds, one sofa, and one queen air mattress. We currently have at least one bed taken and then we're open to discussing who our extra person will go depending on how many other people we get and what their comfort level is.

Preferences and Description:

Age Preference of Roommates: Open, though prefer someone at least in our age range (mid to late 20s/early to mid thirties)
Gender Preference of Roommates: Currently we have two females and one male (one couple in the group), so we're open to gender, as long as you're a respectful, clean, trustworthy human being. No children please.
Include a brief description about yourself: Hi! I'm a SDCC vet and so are my buddies. We've seen and done it all. I work in Tech in SF and my friends work in Entertainment down in LA. We dabble in cosplay and aren't hardcore partiers, but enjoy taking advantage of all that SDCC has to offer. We have at least one committed Hall H/Ballroom 20 overnight in us each trip and mostly use the room for cosplay storage, staging, showers, and sleep. We usually splitsies on snacks and drinks for the duration of the weekend to keep things somewhat healthy. We get along super well and have been through hell and back together at the Con so you won't have to worry about awkwardness with us.
Additional preferences for roommates: We prefer someone who is at least a little bit on the friendly side and wouldn't mind sharing some part of their experience with us. We do pretty well for ourselves and aren't looking for someone who needs their hand held through the entire thing, but we'd love to add to our group of regular Con friends who we share resources, info, tips and experiences with. A cosplayer would be great, just because we're trying to get more into that, or someone who is in the industry as our two friends in entertainment are always looking for peers to network with.

Reach out if this sounds like you to discuss details!
