Postby KagamineLen » Tue Apr 24, 2012 9:21 am

Yea, I live in Washington State, if any1 is heading up there can I please hitch a ride?
and also I am looking for roomies, 3 nights I'll pay on the day I get there.

I am a clean 18 year old male. I do not drink, nor do I smoke.

Update 04/26:
I think i'm gonna have to get up there by train, so is there anybody that still have room that I could crash in?

Here's a free bump for you. If I had room at my place, I'd offer, but I have 7 other people already living here... Plus it's 40ish mins away... Surrey as well.

I am coming from out of town, so I don't have a place for you. But a suggestion would be to look at Hostels ([url]www.hostelworld.com[\url]) as a cheap place to stay or if you would like to try to find a free roomie there is a travel movement called couchsurfing ([url]www.couchsuring.com[\url]). I have had success before finding free places to stay all around the world.

Hope that helps.

I've stayed at Hostelling International (the Vancouver Central location) more than once. It's pretty clean and well-priced. I'd recommend asking for a room that doesn't face Granville street (less noise). It can range from $35 for a 4-person room to around $100 for a single.

Basically, if money is more important than a hotel close to the con, go for the hostel (13 blocks vs. 2 blocks to walk from Marriott).

This week I booked with the Kingston Hotel on Richard Street. I stayed there 2 years ago and had a wonderful time there. The staff is friendly, the hotel is nice and the VCC is only a few blocks away so it's within walking distance. Right now it's $65 a night before tax for a single room with a shared bathroom but you do not get a TV in the room but they do have wireless internet. There is also a TV in the lobby. Good luck to you and hope you find a good hotel either way. :)

Hey there! I decided I want to go again and am also from Washington! :)

Have you thought about taking the bolt bus? It's cheap and safe!! You purchase your tickets online, and board in Seattle International district. And that's what I plan to take. I'll be looking for roomies too, preferably someone who wouldn't mind booking the hotel and I can pay them.
