DCon Newb looking for room share

Contact info: cmhylton@comcast.net
Well, I'm a 37 yo male DCon newb looking for a room for the convention. I'm coming from Miami, FL and leaving on Wednesday. If it helps anyone coming from along the main FL thoroughfare, I can share driving and gas duties. I hope to have 2-3 costumes to go but most are suits and take little room, hopefully. I don't drink, smoke nor commit animal sacrifice unless it leads to tasty southern barbecue.
Thanks in advance.
Hotel(s): Marriott Marquis, Hyatt, Hilton (in order of preference)
Check-in: Wednesday?
Check-out: Monday
Room preferences: Bedspace preferred, but can do the floor (with extra pillows, blankets, sleeping bag/air mattress) in a pinch
Number of rooms: Roomshare

This will mark my second D*C, and I'm at once impossibly excited and freaking out with nerves over it - largely because I still have so much costume work yet to finish. Hundred days and counting, I'm trying not to panic and probably failing dismally at that - LOL! In any event, since I am bringing multiple costumes with me, and do some quite extensive makeups for them, I feel it best - way more convenient, so much easier! - for me to go the host hotel route again. I don't smoke, don't mind drinking but not at all heavily; I'm laid-back, easygoing, full of smiles, and am probably just every bit the stereotypical Canuck just happy and excited to be there. :D

Edited to clarify: I've been checking into flight options and, bizarrely, for me it looks to be potentially over $200 cheaper to arrive on late Wednesday. Therefore, if that's the case, I would need room space from Wednesday-Monday. Is it likely that anyone will have space in a host room which could accomodate me and such a sched? :)
Hotel(s):Meriott, Hyatt, Hilton, Weston, or Sheraton
Check-in: Thursday (but could on Wednesday)
Check-out: Monday morning

5 year volunteer veteran of DragonCon but my usual roommate situation will not be there. I am very dependable and honest, not a partier, drinker, or smoker. I do have several costumes, but no major props. I can absolutly promise no drama :). I will be at con Thursday, (but could come in on Wednesday if the room was ready) and I check out Monday morning. And in the name of full disclosure - I do snore a little :).

Just shoot me an email if you want to know more to see if we suit as roommates or have a room to share :D

thanks
Becki

Available Roomshare

Hotel(s): Holiday Inn Express
Check-in: Friday
Check-out: Tuesday
Room preferences: Female, or couple.
Contact: Tircassia@gmail.com

This is my first time attending Dragon*Con, and sadly, no friends are able to join me. I have a double bed room available for sharing at the Holiday Inn Express, non-smoking. I'm okay with a couple or female occupants. I would honestly prefer a DC vet, so I don't seem completely lost. And I'd honestly prefer to share the room with someone that I can get along with, so I'd like to exchange a few emails in between.

About myself: I am a 27 year old female who will have a costume, but it isn't anything large or extravagant. I'm quite laid back, I rarely drink, and while I'm all good nerdy fun I tend to stay away from being loud and raucous.

The asking price shall be $250-$300, but can be negotiable. If you're checking out on Monday, then the amount will be dropped.

Single nonsmoking male looking for room

Hey everybody! The person I'd planned to room with had to cancel and now I'm homeless for the Con. This will be my 3rd DragonCon and I'm really looking forward to going, if I can find a place to sleep. I'm 40, non smoking, don't do a lot of drinking and travel light. I'll have maybe two costumes and they shouldn't require much space outside the suitcase. The only drama I like is the kind I read about or watch on the screen so you don't have to worry about any pot stirring from me.

Please help a fellow Con lover out!

Thanks, Tim

Hotel(s): Any Host or nearby overflow, just don't exile me to the airport!
Check-in: Thursday
Check-out: Monday
Room preferences: Prefer two double bed, non smoking, but if all I can get is space on the floor for a sleeping bag I'll take it!

Room Needed, Please

Hi All,

I'm new to this community. It's become harder and harder to secure a room each year, and I've been shut out. I share a room with a group of regular con-goers who travel from Utah, Alabama and Maine to attend the con, so we definitely need a place to stay. Please help if you can. Thanks!!!!

Hey all! My girlfriend and I are looking for a roomshare/transfer. I've been to DC a couple times, but this will be her first! She's 27, I'm 29. We both travel light, with maybe some not-large costumes. We both shower daily and don't smoke. Drinking's cool, we don't get belligerent, we're really laid back. Honestly won't be using the room much outside of crashing for a couple hours and showering.

Three Ladies Need A Room -- D*C 2013!

I'll keep this short n' sweet. Three mature females ages 23, 24, and 25 are looking for room with one, maybe two other persons. Please, no more than that. We hate the drama that tends to arise with room-stuffing. We won't be in there much except to sleep and to change. No large costumes and not much luggage.

-Hotels: ANY HOTEL WILL DO! ANY! ANY AT ALL! It does not have to be a pilot hotel, just something that isn't all the way across town!
Check-In: PREFERABLY Thursday, though Friday can do in a pinch.
Check-Out: Monday or Teusday.
Room Preferences: ANY ROOM WILL DO.

Looking for Host Hotel Room Transfer!

Hey everyone! I'd like to add myself to the fray of trying to get a host hotel room transferred to me.... *fingers crossed* I am a huge cosplayer, as are most of my friends who would be rooming with me, and its not so much an "I would like" as an "I need" a room in a host hotel...!

Hotel: Hyatt, Sheraton, or Westin preferred, but certainly wouldnt say no to the Hilton or Marriott!
Check-in: Wednesday, or Thursday
Check-out: Monday
Room Preferences: Not sure what this means, but uh... just a regular room, con rate, double bed if possible but I can make do
Number of Rooms: Just the one! :D

Please please shoot me an email if you have something! Love you all!

Room Transfer Needed

I tried to get into the Marriott and Hyatt when they opened (no idea when the others open), and couldn't get a room because the site was too slow. We've never stay in an overflow hotel, so I wasn't sure which ones to look at, so I missed those as well.

Hotel(s): Westin is first choice, but will stay at any
Check-in: [please list day (Thursday, Friday, etc), not date]: Open, but at the latest of Friday
Check-out: Open, but at the earliest, Monday
Room preferences: Any

Dragon Con 2103 - Looking for roomshare

Hello all,

I'm looking for a room to share:

Prefer Host Hotel.

Check in: Thursday (Wed if available)

Check out Monday

I am 45, will be doing light costuming and press work for NerdBastards.com during the weekend. Nothing that would disturb anyone, I'm pretty laid back, non smoker, social drinker, clean up after myself (No wet towels or hair in the sink, hate messy folks that don't consider the others in room).

I live in Atlanta so I would be able to pick up anyone with room space available that is flying in for the weekend. Would be happy to take you back to the airport for your departing flight. Can pickup any Atlanta folks and save parking as well. I've got a Trailblazer that can fit plenty of people and stuff.

Mark

Hello! We really, really, really would like to get into one of the host hotels this year. We've managed to miss out the last three years and we're searching hard for one now. Here's what we're looking for:

Check-out: Monday

Reservation transfer request -- CANCELLING

Pretty straightforward. Couldn't book until I knew how many would be going with. By the time I got that sorted, all the host hotels were booked, and the one nearby overflow hotel I like staying at is still renovating and won't be taking reservations until 2014. *sigh* So...

Hotel(s): Any host hotel, in descending order of preference: Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt (International Tower preferred, then Radius, main tower in a pinch), Sheraton, Westin
Check-in: Thursday
Check-out: Monday
Room preferences: 2 beds, non-smoking
Number of rooms: 1
Contact info: j.rapp@usa.net

ETA: Plans for those who were going to be rooming with me have been falling through, so no longer looking for a room. I'll give anyone who actually noticed this a chance to read my update, and then delete it in a couple days. See y'all at the con. :)
I did not secure my room early (didn't have a credit card to reserve a room) and I was hoping to be put on a waiting list but have been informed there is no waiting list.


  Hotel(s): Hilton or Sheraton, but any of the 4 main hotels will be fine since I am begging anyways.
   Check-in: Thursday
   Check-out: Monday or Tuesday
   Room preferences: Non smoking.

I volunteer for the convention. Have worked with the british media track for the past 4 years. I am looking for space for myself, my husband (his first year) and our foster kid (his first year as well). We are not huge into cosplay so we would not have a lot of luggage to take up space, and would not be in and out of the room throughout the days. My husband and I are both black belts in martial arts. We will be traviling in from Charleston, SC. I am 24 my husband is 30 our foster is 11.
