hey! Out of curiosity if anyone needs a roommate for a hotel please let me know! I'm going to book my hotel soon (tomorrow or Sat). Also, I'm planning on driving to Las Vegas (only few hrs away where I live) If anyone needs a ride to/around there during the festival don't hesitate to ask!
p.s anyone from Balmung? x:

I'm trying to set up a carpool too, since I'm going by myself.
Heading out from Southern California, San Bernardino county area, close to Ontario and Chino Hills and all that.
What area are you in?
Also, I don't know if you already booked a room, but I'm rooming with two other people at the Palms and a fourth person would help lower the costs for each of us more.
Let me know if you're interested in that.
Or at least the carpool xD -
08-17-2014, 04:30 AMRubyMooseStuffOut of curiosity how much will I have to pinch in with you peeps? x:Quote:

08-17-2014, 09:16 AMTotorroThe rough estimate for just the three of us was about $170-$180 each I think.Quote:

I have to double check the final price from the guy that booked it, but I think that's a close estimate.
And yeah, let's do this carpool!
I'm thinking the easiest thing would be for you to come to me and then we head to RubyMoose, if I have my directions correct...Quote:

If you don't have a car I could head down and pick you up and then we head up to Santa Barbara and switch cars if Moose wants to drive?
Edit:
Hmm...
Just mapped it and it looks like you would most likely be West of me and RubyMoose would be further West from you, so I guess we should figure out who should go where xD -

Ah, I see. The hotel I got was pretty cheap I got it for $200 for all three days and it's a 10 min walking distance from rio, but still let me know if you still need an extra guy. Also I was thinking about taking the back roads since I love road trips, but we should really try to plan out this carpool out! To add I can leave my place really early if ya need me to pick up anyone in a different city,

It's more or less up to you if you want to join us.
I say you do, because I want to be cheap to have more money to spend on goodies and such at the fest :P
$130-$135 would be for the entire stay, which I think is late check-in Thursday, and early check out Monday, I just asked him to make sure about that part because I wasn't sure if those were the exact days.
We're going to be at the Palms, which is maybe a block or two away from the Rio I believe.
There's supposed to be a shuttle that goes straight to the Rio as well, and the guy that booked the room is thinking about getting a rental car so that may make travel easier, though I don't think walking would be much of an issue anyways if he doesn't.
I was planning to leave Thursday like midday or so, and I don't mind taking a leisurely route there, as long as we get there by Friday xD
And then maybe leaving Monday morning after the last day of festivities, but leaving Sunday night is okay by me too. -
08-18-2014, 02:16 AMRubyMooseStuff
Well, my friend recommended me this other hotel that I got for $149 for three nights it also provides a free shuttle service as well which is a good thing since I hate driving in a busy area XD
I won't be able to leave Thursday though since I would most likely have work and school x:
Edit: hmm I might cancel my reservation, the hotel looks decent, but the reviews are mixed x: though I'm sure I won't be there 95% of time, however I rather be with fellow ffxiv peeps~ -
08-18-2014, 02:22 PMTotorroYeah, that's why I didn't try to get a cheaper hotel.Quote:

It's up to you, if you want to join us you're more than welcome!
So the carpool might be a bust then? I don't think I want to head out on Friday T_T -
08-25-2014, 01:57 PMsumouji
Im willing to join your party!! Willing to share the expenses of the room!!
-
08-25-2014, 09:02 PMTotorroIt's definitely still open if you want to join since nobody else confirmed ^^Quote:

I'll be heading up from the San Diego, CA area. Anyone still in need of a carpool? I have yet to look into a room, which I'm sure is a mistake at this point. Any suggestions?
-
09-05-2014, 07:57 AMTotorroYeah, still trying to set up a carpool.Quote:

If the offer to stay at the Palms is still open, I'd be glad to book in at that. Are we staying at the resort version of the joint? I've been looking for a chance to book there. Flying in from NM myself, so not sure on the carpool. Also WOO BALMUNG
-
09-13-2014, 03:18 PMTotorroYeah, I'm pretty sure it's the Casino/Resort version.Quote:

Unless a week from now somebody that showed interest says they're still interested and just forgot to check back here?
But I have a doubt >_>; -
09-13-2014, 06:09 PMZartemis
Well, I can confirm, and I'd love to spend my time there, especially since the hotel I booked is like 3 blocks away vs the Palms. Need a PM or something?
-
09-14-2014, 10:16 PMTotorroYeah, please ^^Quote:

Being that I cannot actually find a PM button (maybe due to personal stupid), my email is Zaraziel at Gmail dot com. Feel free to email me there and we can sort things out!

09-15-2014, 08:48 PMTotorroEmail sent.Quote:

I got a retainer position, too!!!
I too am looking for a roommate(s).
As the Rio was looking kind of expensive now, I was looking at the Gold Coast Hotel, which is right around the corner from there, and I can get a discount there :p
If someone/some people are down to split the cost, let me know through my homepage link, we can work something out. -
10-01-2014, 07:04 AMkoikitty
Well if noone minds a female roommate ill join yah lol. I have roomed with guys before, most of them were very repectful so I think I can trust to do that again lol.
-
10-01-2014, 07:55 AMRoeark
Check the gold coast hotel it's across the street from the Rio and it only 99 a night i believe :) Hope this helps.
