I did my homework...staying at the Marriott this year.
The Marriott charges a $100/per day deposit fee. So if you spend 3 nights at the Marriott, expect to make a deposit of $300 on top of your daily rate charge. If you use cash or debit, they will automatically charge you for the deposit fee and expect payment up front (yes, this will show up right away on your debit card). Best bet is to charge on a credit card - the deposit just ends up as a hold on your account and clears after you check out - pending of course there are no damages to the room since you checked in.
I'll have to call them direct because last time I checked with them they told me there was a $50/Night incidental deposit, meaning 3 nights would be a deposit of $150 and it's been that way for the last 4 years that I stayed at the Marriott however if they have recently adjusted their policy by twice the amount, I would need reevaluate the room the split I have going. Still, I appreciate this heads up.
According to the Marriott staff, its $100 per night if you pay cash. Its $50 dollars a night if you use a debit card.

OK. First I read the google map for directions on how to get to the convention.
At first I felt lost.Yesterday was my second try and I think I found it.
I drove for 2 hours looking for the streets(I saw the clock so yeah, I was somewhat lost)>_>.
Anyway,I saw a building that said convention so I think I found it.It had a giant Duck on top and had a big field next to it.
So is that the place the Fanimecon is held or am close?I know the street Almaden blv so I think I'm close. I heard its close to SJSU and I did see a big field with Baseball players practicing and big signs saying San Jose Giants. So was the place with the giant duck it or am I way of? Thank You

Well...having stayed at the Marriot last year, I'm not sure if they charged me the deposit. If they did, it cleared after I paid at check-out.
Now, is this $2/ day convention charge and tourist tax a new thing? It's not automatically included into my hotel cost from what I can see in the Fanime hotel confirmation e-mail. However, last year I was not charged these two items at check out either, it was just the total 3 night cost plus 10% city tax.

I figured Momoi Halko is enough of a MusicFest all by herself. ^_^

hmm coolio ;D ... soooo..... since theres so many band geeks in here (sorrie for my use of language) do you think making a colorguard/drumline kind of thing for the fanime masquerade would be a good idea? or bad idea? (i dont' want to bring bad face to it) ::) (i need to check out the rules of the masquerade because i heard that theres NO tossing of any sort?)
sorrie it went off topic. i think i want takoyaki now >:3
off topic...My winter percussion did Yakitate! Ja-pan a couple of years ago for our winter show (it's on YouTube). I want my PIT to do it this year at masquerade, but I haven't asked them yet. We even had our props painted of the Yakitate! characters and had shelves of bread....back to food so back on topic ;D
Hope you make takoyaki soon...now I want to make some!

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. -_-;
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.
Getting the members to room with others is our cheapest option at the moment....
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...
Alright...somehow, our housing problem just resolved itself down to like 2 people ._.;;;
...So yeah...

Everything was fine until we went to check in. The guy at the counter ran my card through four times, one for each person he said.
