I'd just call and see if they can change the reservation. Both are for a room with two beds. The only difference is your rate and how many guests are registered. I'd imagine since the room wouldn't have to change at all they'd probably be able to fix your price and add the other names.
My boyfriend was keeping a much better eye on things than I was this year, and got us a room at the Westin. King bed rather than two doubles, but that's never hurt a good congoer. Renaissance Waterfront was great last year, but I won't miss going outside in ridiculous Boston weather.
Unfortunately we were planning on staying Sunday night and PAX Train-ing it, but we couldn't get a room for Sunday night. Any recommendations for a cheap hotel closer to the train station for just Sunday?

NEED TWO ROOMS IN THE WESTIN ON THURSDAY NIGHT! Please PM me!
Got a king bed room at the Westin. Glad it's just me and my wife, crazy how fast the larger rooms went.
That's exactly what I was thinking. It's just me and my husband and we got a king room at the Westin Waterfront just two hours ago. I wonder how many people are confusing Waterfront and Copley Place, though.
I wondered that myself, defiantly did a double take to make sure I had the right one.
Room at the Westin and 3 day passes acquired. Pretty good day :-D

No no, it's a single double bed for two guests. I wasn't reading too well in my excitement.

Ugh I'm so mad the day I oversleep like crazy would be the day the passses and the hotels go up. Just barely got Renaissance for the weekend, so disappointed. And I was ready to finally get westin or seaport too gah can't believe it
Oh, I was only going off the tweets I didn't think to be checking the site until the sent out some sort of memo.
Yeah, diligent forumers were F5ing the site like crazy people, and it was noticed early on that the website was in update mode. The links were on there, then the blog post, then later on today the tweet. I assume it's to reward diligent people (or maybe to not hit their servers SUPER HARD right when shit opens.
Grabbed a seaport room by watching the availability tab and pouncing on it. Not sure if it's a bunch of people cancelling or they are opening up a few rooms. Wanted the Westin but definitely not complaining about the seaport.

technically if it said "double occupancy - one bed" then is it a king bed for two people. pretty sure a room with one double bed in it is not a thing that exists (at the seaport, at least). not that any of that is helpful if you need two separate beds, just saying.
Ill never forgive my first PAX East last year and waiting so long to get a 3-day... after they were sold out... and not getting a good hotel room and having to drive in every morning... I purchased 6 single 3-days (for me and the wife) and didnt regret it... but glad I can save cash this time
3-day purchased, and 3 nights at the seaport tasks complete... THANK GOD! Saving $60 a night on the hotel is nice, and as I could see, seaport had the cheapest parking if you are going to walk at $19 a night.... sure beats $45 as I am driving.
thats what I did, I did a friday and sat and seaport had no thursday rooms. With some dedicated refreshing I found a thursday room and tacked it on.
I've made multiple reservations at other hotels, and have always had good service with them. Sometimes you dont get to keep the same room (if you had say double bed for thur option then a single bed for fri/sat), but in those cases the hotels have always held my bags till I came back so I didnt have to wait for check in time, or something like that.
Just keep looking on the website and refreshing. I just got a westin booking because I set the website to refresh every 3 seconds. Good luck to you all! See you at PAX EAST!

There will probably be shuttles, info probably just isn't ready yet (once again, speculation).
This is also my understanding of the shuttle situation.

PAX will always be held on the best weekend for PAX. Sometimes that will be a bad weekend for you; I'm sorry.
I'm not very educated in the light of hotels, so I must ask: when you order a single bed room for two guests, are you legally only supposed to have two guests and no more? I snagged a Westin room when they were still available, but now I may be regretting reserving only one as I was supposed to book space for four people total.
My idea is that two people can sleep in the bed and two other people on air matresses, but I need to know if it's "alright" to do that.

You're not allowed to do that and if you're caught you will probably have to pay some sort of extra guest fine.
That being said, I've had up to 6 people in one hotel room, left the "Do Not Disturb" sign up all weekend, didn't make noise or cause any trouble and nobody was the wiser.
how come seaport doesn't show up for thursday night or monday checkout? they just dont want to give good rate for those days?
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure if they're not showing up, it's because Thursday is all booked out, and sunday night is all booked out.
Because I know for sure that Thursday night says no more rooms available. (since I wanted to book thursday but couldn't) So sunday night for a monday checkout is probably the same.

Damn those went fast, What were the rates for the Westin and Seaport, out of curiousity?
$185 and $189 respectively.
Wow that's a great price. I don't mind walking anyway, last year I stayed at my aunts house like 10 miles away and walked more than I did in my entrie life. Worth it, but I think this year I'm going to get a hotel.

Had a room at the Seaport. Lost it because both credit cards expire before the event. One of them by a month. This puts the cherry on my crap sundae of a day.

It's been up a lot longer than an hour.
No no, it's a single double bed for two guests. I wasn't reading too well in my excitement.
It went live before the tweet. Was on http://east.paxsite.com/ earlier this morning.
