    I was able to reserve a hotel closer to the convention center, so I now have a room at the LA Athletic Club available. I called the GenCon hotel line and they said I can transfer the reservation to anyone else's name as long as the other person has a hotel code, so if you want my reservation, PM me. It's booked for 5/23 - 28, the hotel is 7 blocks from the center, and it's included in the shuttle service.

    From the GenCon description you get complimentary fruit & cheese basket upon arrival, complimentary coffee, tea and muffins and newspaper delivered each weekday morning, complimentary hot breakfast buffet in The Grill Room. The site also said the room came with a fridge. The rate is $145 a night.

    Okay, I've finally decided to make the trek out to L.A. Didn't think I would be able to make it, but it seems like I'll have enough money in time to go. So now I face the task of finding lodging.

    ME = 30 year old fun loving guy from Baltimore, MD. Very light smoker, (only outside if at all), likes to have a few beers whilst singing some karaoke.(God hope I can find some.) I made a lot of awesome friends at C# and I really want to see them again as well as make some new friends. I'm hoping to fly in on the 23rd or 24th and fly back home on the 29th. Is there anyone who can help me?

    I'm looking to see what my actual possibilities are in attending Celebration IV. I REALLY WANT TO GO...MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD!
    but I need to see if the trip is do-able.

    I am willing to Volunteer.
    I am willing to sleep on the floor/couch.
    I don't need to smoke.
    I will be on a very low budget, but I'll be satisfied just to make the pilgrimage.
    It will be my first experience flying unless I can carpool from Ohio.


    You're my only hope! PM me if you require more info.

    Ok, I booked 3 rooms for my fanforce back in November, and several of my people had to cancel. I now have one quad room at the New Otani available. I would rather not be charged the $50 for canceling, so I want to transfer this room to someone else. I think the New Otani was the cheapest hotel to stay at, and the room is $143 a night. The only catch is that by the time I reserved the room, the Wednesday night stay was all booked up, so the room is for 4 nights, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. I had one of my other rooms set up with the same nights, but I asked them to add the Wednesday night when I called later. I haven't gotten confirmation on adding that night, but they did tell me that they thought that I would be able to get that night, once some rooms had been canceled after the April 16th deadline. They can probably put this room on the waitlist as well. PM me if you are interested!

    okay here's my situation now. i got a place to stay on friday, saturday and sunday. but my plane comes in on wednesday, so i still gotta find a place to stay that night and thursday. i'm thinking about getting a room at the ritz milner, but its $99 per night, even for a double. so is there anyone who needs a place to stay on those two nights who might want to split the cost with me?

    I checked Expedia recently and it looks like some of the hotels close to the Convention Center opened up some of their rooms.

    Ritz Milner for $267 night (major bump in price from before!) - .58 miles away

    Stillwell Hotel for $72 a night - .62 mi away

    Wilshire Grand for $229 a night - .74 mi away

    I've researched the Stillwell and its gotten really bad reviews. That was going to be the place I would be staying at, but after reading up on it, no thanks. I went ahead and booked at the Ritz Milner. Not too bad for $100 a night. But I have space for one more person on Wednesday and Thursday if anyone needs a room on those two nights.

    One of my roommates had a change in plans and so I need at least one more roomie. My reservation is at the Sheraton and the rate is $209/night. I currently have two roomies but would like at least one more (two would be better) to get the hotel costs down as much as possible. The reservation is for two beds and I am bringing two twin size air mattresses. (We can rotate sleeping in bed and on air mattress.) It is a non-smoking room (can probably be changed if needed). The dates of the reservation are for May 22-29.

    Please PM me and let me know if you are interested!

    Hi yodakarma! *waves* I hope you decide to stay with us.

    Sadly, Kim (FlyingCasual) isn't going to be able to stay with us after all, so we may need another roommate for our room at the Sheraton. We hope to end up with either four or possibly five people in the room. There are two double beds, and if we get a fifth person, someone (maybe me) can probably bring a sleeping bag or air mattress and the five of us can rotate sleeping on it. If anyone still needs a roommate, send me a PM and I'll let you know if we can fit you in. :)

    Blast! It looks as though my roomie for CIV is bailing on me due to a lack of fundage. He's still planning on attending, but will most likely be staying for free with some friends of his in Hollywood.

    Just a heads up, because I may need to look for a possible roommate to share the cost of my room at the Holiday (Special) Inn; otherwise, I may just have to go it alone. PM me if any long-time FanForcers are interested. Thanks!
