Hi,

I made hotel reservations a while back when it was cheaper and got a good deal.  The thing is, I just moved out of state and I can't afford to come back to attend fanime so I'm selling my reservations so that I can pay for my expenses to live. 

The room is for Friday May 22nd - Monday May 25.  Checkout is on Monday so it's only 3 nights.  The room comes with lots of awesome amenities including access to the concierge lounge which serves complimentary food... (however it's only open M-F).  The best part though is that it's right where fanime is, so you dont even have to exit the building to go to fanime.  Thats why I got it, so that I can walk around in my PJ's and go room to room watching anime all night.  Sucks that I can't be there. :(

Anyway, if you're interested, I'm putting my reservations up for auction on ebay.  You can also email me if you have any questions.  :)
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180354513511

Please remove that Ebay link. You can't sell reservations. Just either cancel your room or change your reservations. Thank you.

 ???umm..... no one but the person who reserved the room can use the reservations!!!!

they'll ask for the ID of the adult who reserved the room when you get there .....
so selling reservations aren't possible at all!!!!!! sorry


wcoast99

Actually, the reservation is easily transferable.  It's very easy to change the name on the reservation.  :)

Also, if i were to just cancel my reservation, the room would go up to $239 per night instead of the $169 per night.  Thats a $70 per night difference.  So at 3 nights, you would be paying $210 extra! 

I'm really not trying to rip anyone off.  You would actually be saving money if you just bought the reservation from me AND helping me out too.  With the economy being so terrible, I'm really struggling financially.  I figure the money that could be going to the hotel, could go to us instead.  Please don't be critical of me, I'm just going through a hard time.

If anyone is still interested, email me and we can work something out.  Or you can also search "FanimeCon 2009" on ebay to see my auction.

Selling = no. Transferring= yes because you can change the original person to another person who will take over the room.

Man, this is short notice innit?

So here's the skinny. My roommates flaked on me. I've got nowhere to crash for con.

I am a 25 year old male. Here's a picture if you care. http://img124.imageshack.us/img124/2228/n6533955912266241215.jpg

I don't smoke or do drugs, but I don't mind if you do. I drink very rarely, and I'm not planning on it at all this con so it's not something to be concerned about. Unless you drink and provide the alcohol. I don't steal or go through other people's belongings, I'm not a creep or a jerk, and I don't bite unless asked.

I'm very easygoing and have no problems with anyone of any creed. Female, male, GLBT, black, white, hispanic, asian, or whatever else from whatever culture, it doesn't bother me a bit. We can interact as much or as little as you want; Really all I need is a place where I can keep my stuff and crash when I'm tired. I bathe. If you're interested but have any additional concerns, please feel free to send me a private message. I'll answer most anything!

I am staffing this year, and will coming a day early to help set up. This means I need a room for thursday night, in addition to friday, saturday, and sunday. Do not hold back if you can only keep me for a day or two; ANY assistance is appreciated!

As far as payment is concerned....I regret to say that I don't have very much money. I can't afford to pay. However, I'm not demanding a spot on a bed; I've been doing this for more than ten years now...a blanket, a pillow, and a soft patch of floor is plenty for me. Additionally, I am a certified massage therapist with over 600 hours of training, plus work experience. There are non-monetary benefits to be had. My specialty is foot rubs...

Finally, this part isn't required but it would help quite a bit. I live in Sacramento, and I have a ride to the convention but it's not the best situation and I have no ride home. Any assistance with travel would also be appreciated. Anyone who gives me shelter AND transportation to and from the convention and has enough room in their vehicle for my massage table will get a special treat~

If you can help me AT ALL, please send me a message! Thanks very much! =D

Hi, my friend and I have a double bed room at the Marriott for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night.
We are looking for one possibly two people.

We are establishing a party room so we're looking for people who are comfortable with a fun friendly area. But we are respectful and won't get in your business, we're only seeking to have a relaxed environment.
The place will be full of video games, anime, other party supplies we can all indulge in. :D 

We both like to be organized and clean. We are just looking to have a good time and a place to crash and to lessen the cost another roommate.

Send me a pm for further details and information.



and to show how non threatening we are here's a picture i'm sneak linking of my friend

Message as soon as possible please. :3

Im 18, male, dont do any drugs, and I dont drink.  I dont really mind whom I room with, as long as its at the mariotte or at the hilton, so I dont have to get out of the convention center.  Im mainly looking just for a place to store my stuff, and place to take a shower.  Im very clean and orderly.  In addition, I wont be in the room that often, and if I am, its usually to take a short nap, or just to grab some stuff before going back down.  I wont be in the room that much considering I usually stay up most of the convention and just wander around most of the time.

Anyways, the convention is very near, and I really need a place to stay...That wont be too expensive for me if possible ^^;; Anyways, thank you very much, and Im hoping to get as some responses soon.

This sig isnt true anymore...I have to wait for a bit...

Hi, I'm Dibei. I'm a 24 yr old female SoCal who'll be at the Artist Alley, and I look like this ---> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v104/Dibei-Chan/Photo286.jpg... I'll have art commissions available, selling prints, and I'll be promoting Bluecanvas.com and my new radio show on KTSTfm.com.

I need to stay at a hotel or somewhere decently close to Fanime from Thursday through Saturday nights. But I'm on a very tight almost non-existent shoestring budget. I R srsly p00r. =^_^'=

I am ready and willing to sleep on the floor. I'm willing to trade art commissions and/or design services (I'm also a Graphic Designer) for a place to sleep and/or use of, if not learn to use, my Shinai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinai; I freestyle more than normal Kendo). I can teach you how to write Hiragana and Katakana (Japanese) a bit if you'd like. I can also provide transportation, as I'm driving up from LA (I'm not too sure about how much parking will end up being though =._.'''= ).

I don't drink, smoke or do drugs, am cleanly (I take showers / don't reek) and a laid-back otaku-ette who plays nice with others.

I'll be greatly indebted and grateful if you could please let me borrow a little floor space and message me or contact me somehow before the Thursday morning before Fanime. Domo-arigato-gozaimasu (in advance). *Bows humbly.* =-w-=
I'm an Artist Alley Artist! See you at the Fanime AA! =^3^= <3

I think that www.bluecanvas.com is made of awesome.

My friends and I are looking for some roomates as well. I don't know if they posted this message or not, but we're staying at the Marriot and it's $25 per day/night. We're also staying Thurs-Monday. There's only about 3 of us right now, some people backed out. Most of us are over 21, or at least 21. (I'm 24)

It doesn't really matter with us if you are male or female. We're a laid back group, and don't mind meeting new people.

I'll be getting the room info soon, and you can just message me via PM for contact info.
