Dad really, really wants us to stay at a different inn this time around. He's got his eyes set on the Sleep Inn and Suites in Linthicum, MD or somesuch city. We would be staying at a nicer inn, in larger rooms, in a nicer neighborhood, in a hotel directly on the light rail line that will take us to the convention (no shuttling from the hotel to the lightrail). The only problem is, it'll cost $90-100 a person.

The question is, will this price be a problem for anyone going? I think some of us are willing to help out those who can't afford this in whole or part, we just need to find out who needs help to work it out.

If you'd prefer not to post here that this is a problem, pop me an IM about it. <p>

The price is fine with me, and I'll chip in for anyone who needs help.

Also, it's $90-100 each for all 4 days, right?


... :D

I do believe I can do such, yes.


So don't worry, I have no problem with that amount.

That is right, 90-100 for all 4 days. <p>

It's significantly pricer but that's like half of one paycheck so it shouldn't be a problem.

Look, I won't deny that it's a good idea... but neither can I deny that the majority of us aren't exactly made of money. I should be able to swing that... it'll just mean buying less cool shit at Otakon. A lot less.

Gotta get serious about saving money now. <p><div style="text-align:center">Image</div></p>

If I go, the extra $100 should be no problem.

I have no clue.

Given that I am going to have a majorly draining insurance payment before Otakon, it's looking less likely.

Please don't get all pessimistic, it's depressing and stressing. The point of this is just so Jak and I (and anyone else who wants to help) can figure out who we need to help out so that we all can go. <p>

Yeah, I think I can handle that price, so long as I don't lose my wallet this time around XD

Assuming I can make the arrangements to go at all, I think I can handle that...but I don't think I can help anyone else with their own arrangements for a variety of reasons, unfortunately. I'll see what I can do. <p>

I shouldn't have a problem with it, just less things to get at otakon. But hey, I've never hung out with you guys in person, so it seems pretty good to me anyways! :D

Well, Div, you aren't staying in the OH/KY caravan hotel rooms, so you can expect to pay more unless you can find people to share the room with you. <p>

......hm.

After looking elsewhere at the prices, I'm not deterred from this in the least. (Though if it goes any higher than what I looked up for it, which would be about $109 a night, I'll have to reconsider the whole trip.) <p>

Try searching the hotel's website and search for two 4-person rooms. You should get a rate around $79 with a triple A discount (if anyone in your family has triple A). <p>

When you say 4 people rooms, will there only be 4 people in them or will we have people on the floor and so on?

We're getting two 6-person rooms and my dad is getting one 4-person room (which he's going to share with Amanda, my brother, and I). We will have between 12 and 14 people in the two 6-person rooms (*cough*).

There are NOT going to be 6 beds per room, though...at best it'll be two double beds and a sofa bed. So yeah, some people are going to have to sleep on the floor or cots. <p>

That's fine with me. It's a bit early to say if I can help anyone else, but I'll see what I can do.

GUS: You don't need to worry about a hotel room if you're staying with me. My parents are cool with you staying the whole week. Remember, I'm taking off that whole week, and I only live like 30 minutes from the con. <p>------------------
