Room Needed:
+ Introduction: Hey, I'm Haiden. I'm going to be 19 when the convention rolls around. I first attended Fanime in 2015, didn't attend the next two years due to personal reasons, and just got back to attending last year.
+ Hotel Information: I'm hoping to be able to do Friday night-Monday morning.
+ Requirements: I would prefer that whoever I room with be between 18-30 (I would just feel more comfortable if I wasn't rooming with someone who was much older than me). I'm also fine rooming with either just guys or both guys and girls, I don't have a preference. I have no preference in room rules.
+ Contact: you can message me here or email me at [email protected].
+ Miscellaneous: I am a trans man so you and whoever else is in the room should be comfortable with that.

Looking to take over a reservation.

Hello! My name is Jenaye. My friend and I was out of luck this year. We weren't fast enough to get a hotel reservation this time and are now looking to take over a reservation. Any distance away is fine. This will be our 4th time going to the Fanime. We are looking forward to it so please contact me if you have a reservation to give away.

Contact me by [email protected] or a dm on here :) I respond very quickly and kindly.

Thank you~

[umbrellawizard]

My name is Nicholas. I'm male, 32, and looking for a room at any of the hotels within walking distance of the convention. I'm on the quiet side, but generally looking to meet new people and make new friends.

I will be wearing rather bulky, warm cosplays (they do not take up a ton of room when broken down, and are only bulky when worn), so anything not within walking distance isn't an option. I'll be crossplaying, in case that would be an issue (Letty Whiterock and Yamame Kurodani from Touhou Project for anyone curious). I'm very into retro computers, games, and technology.

Ideally I'd like to stay from Thursday night to Sunday night, but I can stay through Monday if that makes things easier. Please contact me at [email protected] if you'd like to work something out.

Ac hotel 106/night Friday- Monday. So far we have 2 people. Total for all 3 nights 318. Any questions let me know. This is 6 blocks from the con.


Looking to fill up this room it will be split among how many people we get in this room. This is a no party room.


You will pay the day of con. You get access once the room is paid off.
I have a hotel room at
AC hotel: 350 West Santa Clara Street
San Jose, CA  95113
friday-Moday
Cost: 106/night
6 blocks away

I need roommates! I am in my 20's but I have been going to this convention for about 15 years, I love to have fun and keep it real. just a little bit about me.

Rules:

No drinking (or coming in drunk), No DRUGS, No weed, E-cigs out side of the room, no smoking, everyone must be respectful, NO STEALING. no minors.

This room is just realistically for sleeping, we all want to have fun at the convention and don't want to worry about causing problems. but biggest rule of all; HAVE FUN!
I will try to pack the room pretty full. my guess is 6-8 people. depending on what everyone else says. honestly I don't know how big these rooms are I have never stayed in this hotel before.

I need a room desperately!


+ Introduction:
I'm 23 years old(female), been to fanime for 5 years and want to make it 6 this year. I already bought my flight from Ohio to California and willing to spend $100-200 to room with a nice group of people. I am super chill and would like a bed rotation option due to medical problems. I don't drink excessively and can pay cash upon arrival or via PayPal because I have a lot riding on arriving from across the country.

+ Hotel Information:
Being at something close or connected to the convention center is ideal. I am willing to pay $100-200 from Friday-Monday morning. Willing to sleep in the same bed as a male as well if that is alright.


+ Requirements:
Please do not steal my things. That's all.

+ Contact: text: 707-364-8835 or email [email protected]

[olingamer]

Introduction: My name is Olin Pritchard and I'm a 17 year old boy who desperately needs a place to stay.

Hotel Info: I won't be wearing big bulky armor but the closer the better I'm willing to spend up to 150$ on a place to stay with at least one roommate. I'd also apreciate it if I had a two bedroom hotel room. I'll be there from day 1 to 3 leaving on the evening of day 3.

Requiremets: No smoking, drinking, uninvited guests, or stealing my stuff.

Please contact me through PMs on my facebook page Olin Pritchard. Hope to hear a response soon but the fanime forum DMs would also work.

NEED A ROOM for 2 girls

Hello friends, my name is Lillith (22F) and I'm looking for a room for me and my friend, Ling (24F) from Fri-Sun. We were looking at AirBnbs however it seems like it'd be better for us to make some friends and room closer to the con! Yay friends!2

Hotel Information: STAYING CON DAYS! We're pretty flexible about where, we're just sort of looking for a hotel near the convention! We'll be driving in from Colorado somewhere from Thurs/Friday and we're looking to get out by Monday! So I guess from Friday - Monday. As always, sort of on a budget since this isn't our only con (however our first Fanime! Yay!) so preferably under $175(?).

Both of us are cosplayers, however space isn't a problem we are not bringing anymore than 1 small suitcase or duffle since no big cosplays until AX. (We also have a car to shove everything in.)
Again super flexible so I don't care if it's a floor spot or a couch. Bed would be super nice, we're both pretty small so you can pretty much cram us into anything.
Gender doesn't matter. (Again super flexible about rooming.)

Requirements: Uhhhhhh somewhere we can crash for the nights? Don't steal? Unless you want cheap wigs.
We're very respectful, mostly just need room to sleep in after con day is over.

Looking for a room since I don't live in downtown anymore--twas the best cheating but alas. Dunno if I'm cosplaying, but if so it won't be something bulky. Last year I made rice-maker fried rice to share with my roommates(if I do end up in your room tell me any food restrictions! I can work around em.) :P I'm pretty chill, tend to run late--but am good at tiptoeing in to sleep.
Slayers and Outlaw star ftw. ;P
+ Hotel Information: Greatly prefer Hilton or Marriott, but could consider others con-adjacent. Looking for Friday-Monday, wouldn't turn down Thursday-Monday tho.
+ Requirements: Non-party room. I do drink a lil, but that's it. No smoking/drugs. Thx.
Looking for a floor or solo bed/couch/such spot. Basically just somewhere to sleep and stow mah stuff.

I had a very nice experience rooming with strangers previously and am looking to do the same this year. We're friendly, quiet, neat, clean, don't drink/party/smoke/do drugs/bring people over, and don't have lots of stuff.

ROOMMATES WANTED - WESTIN/ ST. CLAIRE

I know this is super late as most of the people going to con have pretty much found a place to crash. My wife and I are currently looking for potential roommates anywhere from 1 to 3 people depending on the situation. We booked the Westin from Friday to Monday and will be driving up from San Diego late Thursday night/ early Friday Morning. The room only has one bed. Possibly a roll away bed may be available, but Hotel may charge extra. This opening is for floor spots only. As far as prices are concerned they may range anywhere from 140 to 200 per person depending on the lengths of stay for those staying with us and how many people actually show up.

You may reach me at my gmail account - [email protected]. My gmail account is directly linked to my smartphone so I will see all replies right away and will try to get back to you within the hour.
