Homewood Suites: 1101 Pike St, $169/night, $225.33 per person

    I must say, there are a LOT more options with the PAX rate than the previous years--at the least two previous years that I have been going.

    On behalf of everyone, we all like to the thank the whole team for getting so many hotels under these negotiations.

    P.S. Was there anyone out there who was as much tempted as I was to click on the "No Hotel (Seattle local or hobo)" part?

    So, two questions...

    1)Anyone know anything about registering as a group? If I started a group, am I somehow responsible for everyone's rooms/monies? (We're trying to get a Twitter Shitter block together, and want to be in close proximity.)

    2)Why is the Grand Hyatt more expensive for doubles? It's $169 for a king and $190 for a double. Has everyone else experienced this?

    Good luck with close proximity. I've never had a hotel be able to guarantee a specific room or even a specific floor for PAX. Unless one person reserves all the rooms (and is therefore responsible for all the money), there's no way to guarantee you'll be placed in close proximity.

    And yeah, it seems to be all of the hotels seem to have a jump for multiple occupancy.

    Leaning towards the Hyatt, but need to confirm with friends who is/isn't coming before I do.

    One question though, that I'm frankly surprised hasn't come up yet... which hotel TVs have accessible ports for hooking up consoles? I know most hotels don't, but I was a little disappointed last year when I didn't bring anything only to find that my hotel TV totally could've accommodated some sweet late-night console action. Any chance of putting those details either on the hotel booking site or at least in a sticky post here on the forums?

    So, I'm planning on doing the CCST, but haven't solidified my drivemates yet. Should I book a hotel now for myself and the other theoretical two people in my car?

    Also, I wanted to book at the Grand Hyatt (because it sounds grand and you all say it's grand) but even the double double bed room says max occupancy 2 people. Are they going to flip out if there's three people in there?
