hm, that's worrisome. i'd call the hotel.
if that doesn't work i'll give the westin a call.
thanks for the heads up tvethiopia

Note - there's a sandwich place near here (Viga) that's excellent.
so i'm less stressed about not being able to see the reservation now
Thanks! We will have to check it out.
Is that because I have an additional guest staying with me so it's automatically calculating 50/50 or is this some ridiculous 50% off deal that I'll be all too happy to accept?
Had exactly the same happen to me. Check the e-mail, you'll probably see it lists one guest instead of two. I've e-mailed them to clarify, hope to hear back soon.
Just got a reply, in fact:
I don't think they have my guest's e-mail, hence confusion, but at least that explains.

I'm staying at the Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel.
with most of the official hotels being booked up or at the upper end of the cost chart, its a nice option for the price. already talked to one other person staying there and would love to get together with some others for nerdy antics when we get in thursday night.

So my buddies and I will be staying at the Holiday Inn Boston Brookline, and we have some questions!
Since it's apparently a very long walk to the convention center, we were wondering if anyone had any advice on what to do about getting there! We saw that there is a shuttle that takes about 45 minutes, so is that reliable? Are there optimal routes that we can take (whether it be public transportation or driving or walking)?
Is anyone else staying at this place in a similar position? Maybe we can work something out!
Don't know how the shuttle works, but for public transportation:
To get back, you can take the subway home until about 1am (and be sure to hop on the C-line version of the Green Line) otherwise you'll have to take a cab.
Awesome, thanks!
If you're opting for any of the subway passes (at http://www.mbta.com/fares_and_passes/subway/) for your time in Boston it includes use of the SL1 & SL2 buses which go from South Station to the World Trade stop which looks right across the streetish from the BCEC. (If you don't want to walk)
The onPeak website also has "THIS HOTEL IS CUT OFF" in big red letters next to my reservation now.
Should I be freaking out? Because I totally am.
Hmm I have the same thing for both my reservations. I'd imagine this means they've cutoff taking more reservations for the hotel.
If you're concerned I'd suggest calling OnPeak. Their contact info should be in the email confirmation you received, and on the hotel reservation web page.

Thanks Decius, that eases my worries a bit. I'm going to try calling the hotel on Monday.
This. Reservations went to the hotels on the 3rd. Contact them if you need things changed.
at this point i would imagine onpeak has pretty much nothing to do with the reservation, you might want to check with the hotel. hopefully, they're just not listing it on the site because it's too late to make any changes. i'm scared to check mine!
EDIT: checked mine on the westin site, it's not there either. nervous. i'm really glad i printed the confirmation back when it was showing up, so whatever happens i can definitely prove i had it. i'm sure it's fine though (bites nails).
