Hotels are not up yet, but a good way to plan ahead. You know the rules and general idea. Let's have an awesome Fanime 2009.

Hotels are up! Reserve your room ASAP!


Fanime is in 3 days! I hope everyone has some arrangements for their stay during the con. Please remember that I will lock this post on Friday, May 22 at 11:59pm.

Thank you and have fun!

I'm looking for roomies near the con. Travelling from NYC and don't need to spend more money on cabs. I may get the suite if I have others willing to split.

How exactly does this work anyway? Do we tell the hotel we are going to crash 10 people in one room or do we just get a double bed room and sneak in? Never did it before.

Well, every year we plan on getting a two bed room. Then just let people crash. We're planning to get a suite and do that. WE don't sneak around...we just...don't tell em. WE don't hide it though.

LMAO!!  ;)

Well, I sorta have a place to crash, but I sorta need backup. I dont know... I guess when the time comes closer I'll figure it out, but keep me on the "list" if anything. I don't want to fly all the way from NYC and end up sleeping in a box for the weekend.

My friend Jay and I will be looking for at most two people to join us in our room.

In intend to book at the Sainte Claire, check-in on Thursday and check-out on Monday.

We're looking for two people over the age of 21, who don't mind drinking and such, but aren't crazy party people. My ideal con roommate situation involves everybody being able to geek out and have fun, and have a chill place to go to and get some sleep and BATHE! :-)

(And to note on the age thing, it's non-negotiable. Jay and I will be drinking, the reservation will be under my name, I don't want to get in any trouble with any potential underage drinking. At all. End of story.)

Ooh~! I want to room with you! I don't know about paying for some of the cost yet, but if I can I'll let you know. I'm a female currently 16 but by the time Fanime comes around I'll be 17. I swear on my artistic skills that I will NOT steal (drawing is my absolute livelyhood). Stealing is REALLY not cool.
Just 1 question, are you going to be in one of the hotels connected to the convention center? I prefer to stay as close as possible just so that I can have more fun.

And so the craze starts, though it does feel a little early.

About us: We are two 20 year old completely awesome females looking for roommates so that it makes the cost cheaper. We're nice people and we don't steal.

Hotel Information: Right now we are staying at The Marriot, Friday morning to Monday afternoon. We are trying to get the Hilton though. So we might end up there.


What we are looking for: We don't care if you're male or female. No age requirement. Please don't steal. And bathing is a must. Besides that we're pretty laid back. We don't care what your sleeping habits are, come and go as you wish.

Random Information: You will have to either be willing to share a bed or sleep on the floor some nights. We are planning on having 6 to 8 people in the room to make it as cheap as possible. I have had 10+ people in a room for the last two years and didn't have any problems. The only thing that came up missing was a phone charger. Right now I don't really know how many people we will end up with. It might just be a few...we'll see.

If you have any questions or are interested in rooming with us you can just message me here. If you want to  get to know a little about me you can go to my myspace. Here is my friends page as well.

Post by: KyraEnsui on November 09, 2008, 02:24:58 AM
It's good to plan things early in advance, just in case if there's any sudden changes popping up along the way. Even though the hotels are not up, it's good to think where to stay and estimate how much it will cost per person. Also, to let others know that they can share room space if they can't book a hotel.

Oh yes. Please don't overcrowd a room with more than 4 people in the room even if the reason is that it helps the cost cheap because it's a fire hazard and can get you kick out.

Just remember to please be courtesy and respect your roommates. Thank you.

Yea it worked pretty well though. We all kept different time though so there were never very many people in the room at once. I think the only time I saw everyone was monday morning.

It's MATT/JESUS/QUESADILLA MAN! OMG it's been like a million years since I last saw you!

If you can't recognize me, it's chandra! I miss you guys! I'm so not rooming with you again, though! You need to visit since you missed Troy's b-day! Call my house, Jesus!

Oh, Sam wants to room with you (samantha, the cuddly chubby one who everyone thought she graduated with you guys) I already got my room in the Hilton!

Are you and Iris ok?

If things don't work out with my friends (which they probably won't) I would definitely be interested in this :)
I'm an 18 year old female, going away to college next year so this will be my last fanime D:
*cough* honor's student *cough* trustworthy

Anywayyy, if you're interested in rooming with me let me know :D
And I'm more than willing to split the cost of the room!

There's also another guy who wants to go to fanime as well but he only knows us ^^ wanna make a full house with them?

Hello....I'm new to this. I'm from the Eastcoast and I got some crazy idea to go to Fanime. So I bought my tickets and alls set...except I dont have a room... I'm going all alone to meet some friends, but they live there and can't put me up for the weekend.

Basically, I'm looking for someone with a room who will give me a place to sleep. I have no problem paying my part.

My friend hasn't booked her room yet because as of now she only has about two people (including her) in the room, so if you're planning to stay for four nights (beginning Thursday 21 May 2009- Monday 25 May 2009) then the price would be around $193 for each person (total of 4 people). 15+ are welcome, we currently have two spaces open.

Room rules (because the booker is 18)

1. No smoking/drinking/drugs
2. No felonous acts/criminal record
3. Want to get to know you (trust factor)
       forward your myspace page or my friend at: myspace.com/deaths_mistress_vampire (should have a profile pic of a panda wearing a cap)
       or email us at [email protected] or [email protected]

4. must pay in advance (to book the room)
5. must leave name and contact

I normally get a room and share it with a couple of friends but this next upcoming year I might be 2 people short since one will be getting her own room for once and the other's wife is having a baby around that time and he may not be going to fanime next year.  I normally get a room near or attached to the con.

Hello,
I saw your post and thought I'd see if you were still looking for roomies. I'm 24. This will be my first time going to a Fanime Con. In fact it will be my first time in CA. I'm really easy going and not wild and crazy. I'm just going out there to have fun and meet some new people. Most importantly I'm looking for a place to sleep and Bathe.

If you're still looking I wouldn't mind some room mates to save money and those days work for me as well

I'm 25 and pretty much what you described, drink on occasion but not a crazy partier.  So if you're still looking let me know

And I'm the President of the same Anime Club. We really need others to help us out. We're really short on money and our school has locked any money from clubs and other groups due to, well what else, money problems. But thank goodness we didn't deposit our fund money *phew* Therefore, the school won't help either. (Mind you we're a high school anime club)
Please, please help us someone.

You know...when they ask for roomates you would still have to pay. If you have 8 people, it is easier to get 2 rooms and have 4 to a room for the weekend among yourselves without the headaches of outside people. Just saying.

Yes that's true. But that was our original plan. As it turns out, we just do not have enough for all four nights for two rooms. From what me and the VP calculated, we need $1300+ the deposit. And each member going would have to pay up roughly $160 if I remember correctly. We just do not want to have our members to burn holes in their pockets just to get a hotel room. Not to mention that they need spending money on goods and food. -_-;
Getting the members to room with others is our cheapest option at the moment....

Sorry about that :-[
I got everything settled and let me do this again :-[

So, we have about 8 5 (since we excluded 2 other members who also need room and found it themselves) and we have about 2 girls, 6 5 guys (numbers might go up or down), mainly 16-17s. We are planning to stay for all 4 nights (Thursday 21st-Monday 25th). We won't mind paying, but hopefully not over $100. All we ask for is:


If you have any questions or can take people, please feel free to PM me about it or reach us via our club email: [email protected]

edit:edit: We also just came across a problem...One of our couples don't want to be separate, so if possible, can we keep these two together :-\ never mind...I think that problem just resolved itself :-X

Once again, I'm deeply apologies for the problem we have caused a few page back :-[

This is to both you and Sushi-

My advice? Drop ~250 dollars off the price by not staying Thursday night. I mean, I'm guessing you guys have classes that Friday, because most of the high schools are in session still, and I"m thinking the school might notice a pattern if 10 of the students that were missing were in the anime club and, oh look, there's a convention. Seriously, you really don't need to stay over Thursday night. the Dealers room doesn't even open til mid afternoon, I think the opening ceremonies are around 1 or 2 PM...it's just not worth it and you would save a LOT. Yeah it's fun/convenient to be there thursday night, but if you've got money troubles and trying to coordinate it with 10 people...beggars can't be choosers. That's mainly what I'm saying.

That will bring your hotel cost down to ~1000 dollars. Which is $100 per member. You're still going to have like 5 people in each room though the maximum occupancy is 4, but at least you're trying for  2 rooms instead of cramming 10 people in one room (as people have done in the past).

If you could find a parent to hold the room on their card, you'd be set...because the only other major obstacle I see is that you guys are all under 18 and therefore couldn't get a hotel room if you wanted to. Unless someone will be 18 by the convention...

Yes that's true. But that was our original plan. As it turns out, we just do not have enough for all four nights for two rooms. From what me and the VP calculated, we need $1300+ the deposit. And each member going would have to pay up roughly $160 if I remember correctly. We just do not want to have our members to burn holes in their pockets just to get a hotel room. Not to mention that they need spending money on goods and food. -_-;
Getting the members to room with others is our cheapest option at the moment....

Well, we are getting this approved by the school as a "field trip" on Friday, so they wouldn't really notice much, other then those kids went to a "field trip" on Friday.

Alright...somehow, our housing problem just resolved itself down to like 2 people ._.;;;

Roommates Wanted!

About us: We are two 20 year old completely awesome females looking for roommates so that it makes the cost cheaper. We're nice people and we don't steal. And were not creepy either.

Hotel Information: Right now we are staying at The Marriot, Friday morning to Monday afternoon. We are trying to get the Hilton though. So we might end up there.

What we are looking for: We don't care if you're male or female. No age requirement. Please don't steal. And bathing is a must. Besides that we're pretty laid back. We don't care what your sleeping habits are, come and go as you wish. And you cant be creepy. (we had a sorta bad experience with someone that was really creepy last year)

Random Information: You will have to either be willing to share a bed or sleep on the floor some nights. We are planning on having 6 to 8 people in the room to make it as cheap as possible. I have had 10+ people in a room and didn't have any problems. It was actually a lot of fun. The only thing that came up missing was a phone charger. Right now I don't really know how many people we will end up with. It might just be a few...we'll see.

If you have any questions or are interested in rooming with us you can just message me here. If you want to  get to know a little about me you can go to my myspace. Here is my friends page as well.

I have two spaces open in an already booked Hilton San Jose room, the price per person is $116.25 and the room is booked from Fri. May 22- Mon. May 25.

I ask that only those who are staying all of those days reply because I don't want to go through the headache of evenly dividing prices for those who only want to use the room certain days.
I would prefer:
males (since this room is for the guys)
personally responsible/reliable people
no alcohol/drugs/inappropriate behavior (making others VERY uncomfortable)
NO STEALING- theft will result in being kicked out of the room w/out refund
We do not condone any criminal acts of any sort.

The other two room mates are male teens 15-17 years, the room is booked under me and I'll actually be in another room. (I will not be doing physical check-ins).

Payment is as follows:
1) through pay-pal in advance (<-----would appreciate it)
or
2) in the lobby of the hotel on Friday May 22, 2009 right before check-in

no money, no key simple as that. The price $116.25 is the final price, because the room is booked so the price will not change at all.

If interested or need more information, please contact me at:

[email protected]

PS I am Jenn.

Spaces are taken!!!

Okay, um. I have a room in the Marriot. I think it's only a one king sized bed, because all the doubles were taken, but I'm a bit confused if that's really the case or not. I myself will be sleeping on a rollaway bed, and my roomie will be taking the king bed probably.

We're looking for like one or two more people to room with us and split the bill. With one more person, each person will have to pay about $96. With two more people, each of us will pay $72.50

We're booked for Friday night through Monday morning, and we'd really much prefer if those were the days you're staying for. I'm 20, he's 19 I think or 18. We're both guys. You'll probably have to bring sleeping bags unless you don't mind all cuddling up to my roommate or something. Dx

We're looking for responsible people who WILL pay their share of the hotel fee on sight or through paypal in advance. No staying the weekend and saying you'll pay it at the end of the con. We know you won't, you know you won't. Please be generally tidy.

We're cool pretty cool with most people as long as you're rational, and don't act like insane or something. If you're just hyper, it's okay, cosplayers, otaku, hentai fans, yaoi fans, etc. okay. (As long as something lewd doesn't go on in our room. Our tv is not for watching hentai. AND NO BRINGING PEOPLE INTO THE ROOM FOR... YANNO. )

Males, probably preferred simply because most girls would be uncomfortable sharing a room with guys, but if you don't mind, then girls are fine too. We prefer people over the age of 18, since they're usually (trick word here) more responsible, and more likely to actually pay for their share of the room. If you're interested please email me at [email protected] .

Thanks. =]

Alright...somehow, our housing problem just resolved itself down to like 2 people ._.;;;
...So yeah...

....since this is an approved school field trip, you should be staying in hotel rooms that are booked under your anime club for LEGAL reasons.  If anyone at school (i.e. administrators) found out your club members were doing this and not following the proper rules of going on a sanctioned field trip (i.e. teacher/adult chaperon, assigned rooms for members, field trip/medical release forms, etc.) your club would be shut down and your adviser would be in deep doo-doo.

I now that the economy is rough and that you are all trying to save money, but you have to put things in perspective in terms of what a school club can do and can't do on a field trip.  Just because you aren't going to be on school grounds, doesn't mean that the school rules fly out the window.

So knowing that...we shall discuss this tomorrow at the anime club meeting.  You have been forewarned....
Title: General Thread for Roommates Wanted - Fanime 2009
Post by: FanFicGuru on February 19, 2009, 12:17:39 PM
,This has been mentioned many times before, but I just wanted to put it out there in this thread as well. First of all, whatever you decide to do when setting up roommates, etc. is obviously up to you, and I'm not telling you to change your plans, simply consider this before you continue.

The rooms are supposed to have a MAXIMUM occupancy of 4 people. 6 people if you have a suite. Choosing to fill these rooms with upwards of 8-10 people is not only a fire hazard, but a poor reflection on Fanime attendees as a whole. Sure some people may think it's "fun" or "exciting" returning to a room where there are bodies everywhere, including the closets, and piles of swag left and right, but the reality is that housekeeping will notice if they are having to clean up for 8 people rather than 4. If hotel staff realizes that you are housing more than the maximum occupancy allowed, you will be asked to leave the hotel because you have put them in danger of being cited and fined by the fire department should there be some sort of emergency.

Another reason not to have so many people is the noise level. Contrary to popular belief, there are non-fanime goers in the hotels during Memorial Day weekend. Downtown San Jose has a number of tourist attractions and some people use the 3 day weekend to make a trip to San Jose to see the Tech museum or take their kids to the Discovery museum or whatever. As it is, many of the travelers who aren't part of fanime have left fairly strong reviews on places like Tripadvisor complaining of the noise problems they experienced during the Fanime weekend. Now imagine the average noise level of a room full of high-school to college aged anime fans and multiply it by 2. Hopefully you're beginning to understand how this could be an issue. One call to the front desk and all 8-10 of you are now out of a room.

Finally, and this might be a bit of a stretch, but don't you think it's a bit disrespectful to cram people into a room for the sake of "cheaper rooms" when CMR, Craige and other Fanime staff members have worked so hard to provide Fanime with a REALLY good deal for Memorial day weekend? Honestly, splitting a room 4 ways averages to about 100 dollars for 3 nights, it's not that bad at all.

So there you go, that's about all I have to say but I hope that people considering cramming their rooms with more people will think twice.

NOTE: One final thing, I understand that rooms are selling out faster than ever and people really want to be close to the action, but if you get kicked out of the room for having too many people you'll be in the same situation anyways.

Well, technically even in high school if the students are alone they can do whatever they want. The problem is if they attempt to use the fact that they belong to "X High School Anime Club" to gain access to benefits without following the rules of the school that the club gets shut down and the counselor in deep doo doo. So it's very different for say, 2 high school seniors to get a hotel room for Fanime as opposed to 4 high schoolers who all use the fact that they belong to such and such anime club in order to receive a discount etc. As long as the students are acting independently the school couldn't possibly attempt to reign them in on an individual basis.

My friends and I are looking for roomates for Fanime. We're staying at the San Jose Hilton, May 22nd-25th. We'll be driving from Los Angeles the 22nd so we'll be there around 4pm or eariler. We don't have many rules but the ones we have are important:

NO DRAMA..please
We won't fight for the beds, we're used to sleeping on the floor, but you can't be picky if you have to sleep on the floor
We'll be drinking; you can join if you wish, nothing will be forced
Since the Hilton has turned %100 non smoking, we'll be smoking Hookah outside of the hotel in a smoking area; again you may join
Most likely we'll be playing games/watching movies or anime late night

So far we have 6 people ( 3 girls, 3 guys) all over 21+, only one girl is 16. We're matured and well manner adults and looking for the same. We don't care for gender (the guys in the room are respectful), age must be over 16. We're going to ask for $90for the WHOLE stay. Like I said before, we don't fight for the beds but you can't complain if you have to. We're a fun group of friends who made a group called The E.P.S. debut at Anime Expo 2007. To find out more about us here's some links of us:

Ok well got myself a hotel room for the fairmont. from thursday-monday.

The reason we opted for thursday was lets face it, registering for the con on Friday, THEN going to the hotlel room to check in(they dont let you check in until like after 1 PM sometimes) it's just a lot easier to check in the day before and then rest for the day.

So far I have myself and two other friends, with possibly a 3rd friend joining us.

The room is at the fairmont, its a double and basically what I'm looking for is simple.

NO drama.
NO smoking
NO drinking
NO one under 21, as myself and my friends are all 25 and over we'd rather have someone closer to our age group. We've had enough drama in the past from younger anime fans and really the con is about relaxing.

I'm after someone who is responsible, has a good sense of humor, and eays going.

There is a slight chance I may be after another person for the room in the non too distant future future.

[email protected] if you're interested.

ROOMMATES WANTED!!!

About us: We are two 20 year old completely awesome females looking for roommates so that it makes the cost cheaper. We're nice people and we don't steal.

Hotel Information: Right now we are staying at The Marriot, Friday morning to Monday afternoon. We are trying to get the Hilton though. So we might end up there. We are asking for $50 for the weekend. If we get more people then we might lower it, if we don't it will still stay the same and we will pay the price difference.


What we are looking for: We don't care if you're male or female. No age requirement. Please don't steal. And bathing is a must. Besides that we're pretty laid back. We don't care what your sleeping habits are, come and go as you wish.

Random Information: You will have to either be willing to share a bed or sleep on the floor some nights. As of right now we have 6 people with the possibility of 2 more.  I have had 10+ people in a room for the last two years and didn't have any problems. The only thing that came up missing was a phone charger. Right now I don't really know how many people we will end up with, people tend to change plans fast. It might just be a few...we'll see.

If you have any questions or are interested in rooming with us you can just message me here. If you want to  get to know a little about me you can go to my myspace. Here is my friends page as well.

Alright, so this is my third time going to fanime, 06 08 and 09.

I'm not really a huge fan of anime, but enjoy the atmosphere; so here's what I'm looking for. I need few roommates, preferably girls.

I have already got a room in Fairmont, believe me it's bigger than Crowne and St., not sure about Marriot or Hilton.

Anyways, there are 4 other people and all we're trying to do is cut the cost down.

I don't have really requirements, but..
- Please, if you're big...don't even bother..causes too much problem
- Really chill....I don't deal with creepy ass people
- Someone who's outgoing and don't mind alcohol

That's all! Oh, as I've mentioned earlier, please females only...
It's a must, send me your picture or a website for me to see who you are
And we'll go from there.

Hi there, read your roomies wanted post, and the info along with it, if your not full, i am interested in rooming with your group, sounds cool, i been out of luck thus far, hotel rooms for reserve seem mostly sold out, and the person whom i roomed with last year, is not going to fanimecon again, so yeah, been trying to find people to room with that i feel would be similar in vibe to the people i roomed with in 2008, and your group seems to be cool, so i am interested to room with you all if thats fine, 90 the whole stay is fine, as well as the number of people, not an issue (people i roomed with last year sometimes had 10 people in the room lol) and i don't have an issue sleeping on the couch, floor, and such, done it before, used to is by now.

Hello all, this is my first time going to Fanime, its going to be me and at least one other friend(maybe up to 4 but thats unlikely).  Anyway, I'm trying to find a room for us to crash in during the con, though we would not want to spend more than $100 each.  I'm a guy and so the other person that will be coming, any others that join me are unknown at the moment.  We are non-smokers but have no problem rooming with smokers and we are both over 21.  We would be there the whole time, Thursday through Monday but we could always just crash in my car Thursday night if your reservation is Friday through Monday. 

Anyway, at the moment I'm having computer problems so if you responded i'll do my best to get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks
Sean

Hiya!!  My friend and I are looking for possibly 1 or 2 roomates.  We are both female, fun and over 21 (so there will be late nights of drinking and partying involved).  Male or Female would be ok...female may be over preferred by my friend.  But I don't mind either way as long as you know how to share a bed  :o
I have the reservation at the Fairemont from Thursday trough Monday.  Depending on how many roomates will depend on the overall price of the room.  Each person will probably run about $80.
Feel free to e-mail me if interested or if you want more information =D

I have a room in the Fairmont and it looks like I have room for at least a few people, it'll probably be like $50 for the weekend (Fri-Mon). My room is co-ed so male or female is fine (there are already both genders, so no one's "alone"). My only rules are that you shower (or you will be made to by force, seriously) and have an awesome time. There is obviously no smoking in the room, but what you do outside is your business if you're antisocial (don't be) or everyone's if you care to make friends (you should). If you happen to smoke remember, fight the power, and enjoy those new taxes on the first!

As for me, I'm 21, I am from the East Bay though I currently reside in Pasadena (and am offering rides up for those interested). I'm like 5'6 or so, and blonde... er, here's a picture (left):

Hey, we're still looking for one more person for our room. $72.50 for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night altogether. Pretty sick deal right? And please stay for that entire weekend. Even if you're not staying the entire weekend, we'd still require the $72.50.

It's in the Marriott. We'd prefer one more girl, since so far it's two guys and one girl and we don't want the one girl to be uncomfortable or anything, but either way is fine. I'm 20, and the other two roomies are 18. We'd prefer you to be 18+ as well.

Be generally tidy.

No smoking in the room.

Our room is not to be used to *host* certain things. You know what I'm talking about.

You must pay immediately. Preferably ahead of time through paypal, or you can just hand me the money when we first meet up.

The beds will be one king size, and one rollaway. I'll be taking a sleeping bag myself. The girl roomie will get the king size, and I dunno about the male roomie, so there's possibly an open rollaway bed. If you're female, you'll definitely get the rollaway bed, and the male roomie can sleep on the floor because we're just chivalrous like that. ;D

Oh and if you can't get to bed at a decent time, that's fine, just be quiet and don't wake the people that are getting much needed rest. Meaning no TV when people are sleeping. I'm working 6 hour+ shifts, sometimes late into the night as a rover, so I'll need as much rest as I can get.

If you're interested, please e-mail me at [email protected], and tell me a little about yourself. =]

So here my situation. I have a hotel (which is about 4 miles from the convention center) and will be stranded at the Con without a car. I am your average con-addict (stays up until 4-5 in the morning) and am deathly afraid that the ride to my room is gonna want to crash early seeing as this is her first year. I would rather die from lack of sleep than turn in early and miss the ongoings of the fanime nightlife. (aka pervy video rooms and amazing dances.)

So... what I'm looking for is not a room to crash all my stuff in or even really live in, just maybe a backup room I can walk to and be like.. "omg let me sleep... please?" And I will promptly crash on the floor (no blankets or pillows needed) to catch a few shut eyes before waking up a few hours later and leaving to start my crazy day over again.  :D

This shouldn't actually happen but is a just in case scenario. I swear to god I shower every day of the con, am over 18 (I'll be 20 by fanime), and am a trustworthy person. I'm doing this now since I want to know the people I may crash with (or at least the owner of the room) and I know people want to make sure I'm not a psyco who will steal their stuff or destroy the room. On another note; I hate drama. You will get none from me and I would rather sleep in the streets then get dragged into it. So there will be none from me.

Like I said, since I already have a room this is just a back up scenario for a room to crash in. I have very little money for something like this but I am willing to pay if you absolutely want someone to pay for a piece of floor space.

PM me if you're willing to work something out. Thanks!   ;D

Okay. Room at the Marriott (basically right in the convention center). Roomie needed. $72.50 for the entire weekend up front.

Whose inside already: 2 guys, one 20 (me), one 18, and 1 girl (18). Preferably looking for one more girl, but another guy is doable. 18+ please.

Rules: No smoking (in room), pr0n, secks, late night parties, drugs, etc. You know the drill. Drinks are fine, but not excessively. Be quiet when people are sleeping.

If you're a guy, be willing to sleep on the floor on alternating nights. Girls get their own beds. We have one king and one rollaway.

We're cool people, and we just wanna hang out and have fun. Drama is annoying. JOIN USSSS. ;B

E-mail me at [email protected] for correspondence.

Btw: Willing to carpool if you're from the Sacramento/Davis area.

Looking for 1-2 more
Hotel: Marriott
Dates: Friday-Monday

Cost: $50-60

Currently there are 2 (possibly 3) 24-25yo girls. I'm not exactly sure if it's going to be 1King or 2Doubles yet... so you could potentially be crashing on the floor. We're looking for 21+ drama-free people that don't mind being around alcohol. Don't worry, I won't force you to drink anything. :p I don't mind smokers but pls smoke your cigarettes outside. Final request: be fairly clean & not a klepto. Please PM me w/ more info about yourself.

Thanks!

Hi everyone! My name's kate and I'm in need of a hotel room for Fanime. I'm 18, and I get along with just about everyone. I'm hoping to find a room for Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night. I don't mind sleeping on the floor, and I don't care much about the ages or genders of whoever I'd be sharing a room with. I don't plan to be in the room at all aside from changing costumes or sleeping.

My biggest issue is money. I can pitch in 40-50 dollars or so. I know that's not much, but I'd be willing to bring food for everyone. I also know how to style wigs and fix/finish costumes/props really well, so I'd be happy to help with something like that too. I'd prefer to room with cosplayers, but since it's close to con time, I'm really just needing a room in general.

So, with that said, is there anyone out there who'd be willing to help me out? Oh, it would also have to be a hotel within a block or two from the convention since I need to go back and forth to cange in and out of costumes like twice a day.

Thanks in advance for any repsonses, please PM me!

-Kate

Hey!  My name is Jon, I'm 18, and I found out about and signed up for FanimeCon today XD.  May 2nd was a bit late to find a hotel it seems : /, so if anyone could help me out it'd be greatly appreciated XD!  I'd be staying all four days and I'd rarely be in the room =P. 
I can pay up to 120$ if needed, and I don't really care where I sleep, though I'd need a pillow, I just don't want my suitcase getting stolen or anything XD. 
Please PM me if you're able to help, thank you xD

Hello, my friend and I are looking for a room. I'm 19, female, and he's 20. We're interested in staying Thursday night-Friday night-Saturday night OR Friday night-Saturday night. We are not 420 friendly. In addition have bad asthma, so smoking would be needed to be done outside the room/when I'm not in the room, sorry. We don't mind sleeping on the floor or in a bed. I did this last year with random people for anime expo, and there were no complaints and it was quite fun. If you have any questions, or if you feel you can spare some space for us please contact me at [email protected]. Thank you for your consideration. :)

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.  :)

 ???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

Title: General Thread for Roommates Wanted - Fanime 2009
Post by: wcoast99 on May 08, 2009, 04:45:18 AM
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

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.

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 (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 (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-=

We'll I'm not that mad but I just wanted to point out that some of you are lying about haveing an open spot. As for me I decided to just crash at this place for one night, drinkers/smokers are welcome. Must be 21+ to go, it's during the hentai night. Don't bother to pm me your gonna have to just find us at fanimecon.

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.

I'm doing a repost of an early ad and adding more clear information. > . o;;

My friend (Ushitora) and I are staying at the Marriott Friday until Monday checkout.

It is currently looking for possibly two roommates, two per a bed, in a double bed room.
Currently looking for $100-150; the price lowering with each addition of a new roommate.

Chill and friendly environment. Having a room full of anime, games, etc. Yet respectful, clean and orderly room; mainly a place to store luggage and crash from we're all pooped out from Fanime and drama free.


Here's a picture of my friend for reference

and me

Hey, I am looking for people who have already set up a room and are looking for any roomates. Money would be no problem in terms of room payments. But there's one thing I need to say: I won't be down in San Jose until Saturday. Would that be cool with any of you?

I am looking for up to 2 roommates (up to 4 if slightly cramped is not a problem).  I am registered at the Marriott.  I check in on Friday the 22nd and check out on Monday the 25th.  Currently, there are 3 age 21+ males in the room.  18+ roommates are most preferred (but I can accept others if you speak to me about it).  Any gender is acceptable.  We are respectful and clean (we do shower at least once a day).  Payment will only be billed for nights spent, and can be paid right before leaving.  The cost is currently about $80 each for the 3 of us for all 3 nights.  The more that stay, the cheaper the cost will be.  Alcohol will be present, as well as games.  If you have any special requests, we will try to do what we can to accommodate.  You can PM me or e-mail me at [email protected].

Okay. Room at the Marriott (basically right in the convention center). Roomie needed. $72.50 for the entire weekend (Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday night) up front.

Whose inside already: 2 guys, one 20 (me), one 18, and 1 girl (18). Preferably looking for one more girl, but another guy is doable. 18+ please.

Rules: No smoking (in room), pr0n, secks, late night parties, drugs, etc. You know the drill. Drinks are fine, but not excessively. Be quiet when people are sleeping.

If you're a guy, be willing to sleep on the floor on alternating nights. Girls get their own beds. We have one king and one rollaway.

We're cool people, and we just wanna hang out and have fun. Drama is annoying. JOIN USSSS. ;B

I have a room in the Fairmont and it looks like I have room for at least a few people, it'll probably be like $50 for the weekend (Fri-Mon). My room is co-ed so male or female is fine (there are already both genders, so no one's "alone"). My only rules are that you shower (or you will be made to by force, seriously) and have an awesome time. There is obviously no smoking in the room, but what you do outside is your business if you're antisocial (don't be) or everyone's if you care to make friends (you should). If you happen to smoke remember, fight the power, and enjoy those new taxes on the first!

As for me, I'm 21, I am from the East Bay though I currently reside in Pasadena (and am offering rides up for those interested). I'm like 5'6 or so, and blonde... er, here's a picture (left):

As of right now we have 9 people.  I have had 10+ people in a room for the last two years and didn't have any problems. The only thing that came up missing was a phone charger.

Hey everyone, I need some fast help! I posted here earlier, and some of you replied, but I ended up finding a room and saying no thank you. Now that room isn't possible since I won't be able to have a keycard for it, and I NEED a keycard. So I'm once again trying to find a last minute hotel. Here's  a little about me:
-18 year old female
-Cosplayer
-Doesn't smoke/drink
-Outgoing but not all party crazy or anything. And No drama from me ever. Drama is evil.

I REALLY need to find a room, but I'm kinda being specific on what I need becaus eI'm hosting panels and coming form 2 hours away and changing cosplays and stuff.

-Marriot or Hilton
-Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Night. If no Thursday that's fine too.
-Any amount of people in the room is fine, I don't mind the floor.
-I only have 50 dollars for a hotel room, but I'm willing to fix costumes or style wigs, or help with whatever else is needed in order to help pay for the room if it's more than 50.
-The most important thing is that I MUST have a keycard to the room, because I have to host 3 panels and change costumes at least twice a day. I'm going to be super busy at Fanime, so I won't have time to run around looking for whoever has a keycard to the room.

If you have space in your room for me, PLEASE send me a PM. I'm desperate right now, because Fanime is only a few days away.

Also, if you've sent me an invite to your room already and I turned it down, you can send it again. I deleted all my Inbox messages, so I don't have any of your information anymore, and there were a few earlier offers I'm considering now.

Please and Thank You!

I am a respectful and clean 25 year old guy looking for a place to stash my changes of clothing, sleep, and shower.  Any hotel is fine but the Fairmont would be a definite plus since I will be going to the Ball.

Oh not only can I pay for a share of the room, I am also willing to buy snacks and/or drinks for my roomies :)

Unfortunately, me and a few friends are looking for more female roommates for Fanime since someone bailed. :(

Hotel Nights: Crowne-Plaza. Friday, Sat, and Sun. Leaving on Monday.

Crowd: 2 women for Fri. and 4 for Sat. and Sun. We have 2 beds, so there will be room on a bed on friday, but possibly not on Sat and Sun, although we will rotate the beds if there isn't.

Cost: Variable.  The current cost is $33 for Fri, $20 for Sat, and $20 for Sun if we get 1 more person. If you can't afford this price, we may be able to negotiate, since this is a fairly late posting.

Rules: No Smoking, No Drugs, No Men(Sorry!), and the usual... We're all 18 and older, but any age is welcome. You may come and go as you please, but we may have a limited amount of room keys, so some exchanging of phone numbers may have to go on.
