I hear that the Marriot is generally more crowded than the Hilton, and there's correspondingly more.. action?  activities?  there with the people.  I've only stayed at the Hilton, and it was fine, though the elevators sometimes get congested with people.

Most of the videos are at the Marriot along with a few other activities. That's why it's the most crowded place.

Yeah, though I heard tell that they're trying to spread things out more evenly throughout the convention center and utilize the whole space better this year.

The maximum should be at least 6 people in the room. I know that's my maximum. I wouldn't go over 6 people though because fire safety hazard. It just depends how much comfort you want in the room or how cheaper the room you want.

I put this in the other thread as well.

The maximum occupancy for a room is 4 people. Period. Above 4 people is when the Hotel will ask you to leave for creating a fire hazard. Please keep the amount of people in your room to 4 or less. Thank you.

Actually, the real answer is four, six is far too many.  The formula for the maximum number of bodies in a hotel room would be the following, multiple by the number of beds by two.  Therefore, two beds will get you four bodies.  You can't get a rollway in a double/double rooms (safety reasons), hence you can't get six bodies (legally) in a room.

The maid staff this year will be on the outlook for people who are stuffing bodies in rooms. 

Privacy signs mean little or nothing to the maid staff, because they need to clean the rooms, whether you like it or not.

They also have to clean up after you leave and the mess from six or ten bodies in a room, after three or four days takes longer to do than if it's done on a daily basis.

=D Thank you for the clearing. I remember sleeping on the floor actually which I prefer sometimes depending on which hotel I stayed at. I will keep that in mind when I'm looking for roommates. Thanks Craige~!

In regards to the statement about maids being on alert, I don't condone stuffing a billion people into a disgusting hotel room for 4 days by any means, but to what degree will the maids being on the lookout?

I ask simply because in the past, and potentially this year, while not overpacking the rooms, I have had roommates who are simply uncomfortable sharing a bed (in the case of double/double rooms) with another person, so they would bring a sleeping bag or an inflatable mattress and set it up in a spare corner to sleep on. Also, as myself and several of my rommates are avid cosplayers with different costumes each day, we... well, we have a lot of baggage. Garment bags for each outfit and several suitcases for sleepwear and makeup and emergency items and all that. Would the presence of such a setup and abundance of luggage get the front desk called and have an angry representative knocking on our door taking luggage inventory and a head count, or would action be taken only in the instance of OBVIOUS overstuffing, i.e. walking in on 12 people sleeping on the floor and 20 suitcases and a bathroom that boggles the mind?
