    Hotel: Days Inn
    2205 Seventh Avenue, Seattle, WA 98121
    Hotel's geographic relation to the Washington State Convention and Trade Center:
    daysinnpaxsg4.png
    Date arriving: September 3rd
    Date leaving: September 7th
    Spots available: none left
    My Gender: Male
    Your Gender: Whatev
    Best Contact Method: mobile phone - 319-530-7366
    I am highly available at my mobile phone number. However, at my job I sometimes find myself in areas without reception, but usually for only very short periods. I seldom check my voice mail due to its cumbersome nature, so either keep calling or email me (see next line).
    I can also be reached via MSN messenger: eliteinfantryA@Tmsn.com
    Cost: $154 per night w/tax. Will ask that we split the bill evenly.
    Notes: Single room, non-smoking. Asked for two beds. I will be staying in this room as well. Max occupancy of room is 4 according to hotel. Might end up having to bring a sleeping bag or whatever accommodations you will find necessary to deal with not having a bed to sleep on if enough people ask for spots. I stayed at this hotel last year and the year before. It is nothing special, but it provides you a bed to sleep on at night, and is a short, brisk walk from the convention center. I am a tidy houseguest, and don't plan on partying or watching TV all night. I will arrive in the evening on the 3rd, but you may check in at any time past noon.

    1 Bed (Sort of) Available!

    I just canceled a weekend-long bed reservation at the fully-booked Green Tortoise hostel, so if anyone wants to try and get in there, the number is 1-888-424-6783. The free bed is in the cheapest, 8-person dorms, so prices should work out to $30 a night or thereabouts.

    i am not sure this is the right place to do this, but my partner and i may have a spare apartment during pax, if anyone else requires a place to crash. there is a kitchen, a bathroom, and some floor space. may or may not be furniture by that friday, so bring something to sleep in/on. modest donations accepted; bring food and whatever else. might be able to talk us in to helping cook and so on.

    contact me via email (anlyras@gmail.com).

    I have found a room! Thanks to everyone who offered floor space!

    Date Arriving: Sept. 3 (WCTT)
    Date Leaving: Sept. 7 (WCTT)
    Spots Needed: 1
    Additional Notes: I'm 25, this is my second PAX, and cash isn't really a problem, though I'd like to keep it under $200. Additionally, I will not have transport up there, so any spot closer to the Convention center is better. Though I'm leaving on the 7th, I only need a place to sleep from the 3rd until the 6th, if that's a factor.

    I have 3 nights booked at the Seattle Hilton, from the 3rd to the 6th... It looks like I'll have to get another hotel for the night of the 7th, but oh well... I booked 2 double beds, in anticipating a friend coming along, but he had to cancel. So it looks like I have some room. If someone needs a room for those nights, shoot me an e-mail at enterprise_nx_01@hotmail.com. With tax, it should be around $200 a night... so splitting a room would be $100 a night per person.

    Apparently I have a spot in my room available. I am a party animal and like to crawl around Seattle until the wee hours, but my two roommates are not that sort of folk so don't plan on bringing the party back to the room.

    Right now the room is 1 women and 2 men.

    Seattle Sheraton. Sep 3-7. Prob. a floor spot - we've not really set about allocating space yet. No smelly people.

    Spots Needed: 2
    Additional Notes: We're Canadian, eh? Two guys from Toronto, both in our early 20s, 2nd time going to PAX. Friends we were going to travel with dropped out and the remaining hotel rooms in the city are either crazy-pricey or sold out, so we're trying this. He works at a game developer, and I'm a freelancer. Neither of us are crazy partiers, but we both enjoy a drink or two.

    Additional Notes: Not picky about the accomodations - bed, floor, curled up in the closet under some luggage, whatever. Preferably in wandering/cab distance from downtown/convention center - I have a car, but I'm not expecting to be in a state to use it in the evenings. I'm just looking for a place to sleep, so I'll be a low maintenance roommate. Money is no problem, unless you've got some sort of crazy presidental suite or something.

    One of my buddies bailed on me so some spots opened up in my room!
    Rather than sift through all the looking for room posts, rather just post space available and whoever contacts me first...

    Hotel: Homewood Suites - Seattle convention centre (across the I-5 from the con)
    Total Cost: $215 with 4 people, $175 with 5 people
    Date Arriving: September 3rd - afternoon
    Date Leaving: September 7th - morning
    Number of Spots Available: 4, 5 if my other friend bails on me too!
    Additional Notes/Requests: I don't smoke, shower regularly, and I probably don't snore... 2 beds, one couch, pool, free breakfast. I get one bed... there will be drinking in and out of the hotel... We are 'overloading' the room by hotel standards so someone who knows how to be discreet would be nice... there is a kitchen as well so feel free to cook your own meals as long as you clean up of course. The hotel will be for sleeping so please no late night partying in teh room... this is getting too long so we can figure everything else out when you contact me.
