  1. Hotel: Sleep Inn & Suites Baltimore

    Number of People: 3

    Walk to BCC: about 15-20 minutes average (including time waiting for train)

    The Good:

    - Clean room with plenty of space

    - Friendly Staff

    - Peace and quiet!

    - Next door to the Rose Restaurant (which I enjoyed greatly)

    - Located right across the street from the train station which takes you right next to the convention center (the train ride is about 8 minutes)

    The Bad:

    - The door keys failed to work 3 times. However, this was a quick and easy fix by exchanging keys at the desk with no wait.

    - There was some minor vandalism done by someone during our stay to the vending machine and AC/Heater controls in the hallway.

    - CRT television with not many channels. They did have CN though so at least I could still watch Adult Swim!

    - The bathroom is very tiny

    - The weight room is pretty small everything that is said in that room echoes throughout the 1st floor hallways. Don't say anything "bad" while in there or you'll be called out on it. >>;

    - Not very close to the BCC, so you either need to drive there or (as we did and highly recommend) take the train.

    Overall: To be honest, I enjoyed the hotel itself. Aside from some minor annoyances (some of which they had no control of whatsoever... dumb kid vandals...) I really could see myself going back if need be. However, with that said, we're still booking a hotel much closer next year to try to avoid the minor financial cost ($3.50 per day/ per person) of taking the public train.

  2. I'll be cosplaying Isshin Kurosaki from Bleach, as he is the only character that I actually look like IRL and can really pull off well. Gigai form while I'm standing in lines, shopping, etc. Shinigami form for everything else.

    My girlfriend decided to go a different route this year and settled on Kagome from Inuyasha.

    Her brother will be cosplaying Yahiko Myƍjin from Rurouni Kenshin. He can REALLY pull that one off extremely well!

  3. I'll be cosplaying Isshin Kurosaki (In shinigami form) as he is the only character I know I can pull off extremely well (facial hair/structure, voice and body type). I just need to finish building my shoulder robe holder/guard and get my hair cut a bit shorter. I also need to finish my zanpaktou.
