Whether it's feasible is another question.

I think the expectation was under $100/night per room, not per person.
On the one hand, I agree that it's unrealistic for most of the cities we're considering. On the other hand, hotel cost has been a major attendance hurdle, so it might be worth making it a priority, even if we have to sacrifice other items on our wish list.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Okay, I take that back. But I still think it's feasible in San Francisco. Taking a quick Google around, I found this place -- rates sound reasonable, data ports in every room, and it's a short distance from downtown SF and right around the corner from Dark Garden, Citizen Cake and a restaurant/bar called Absinthe.
I have no idea how many rooms it has or whether it's handicapped-accessible (I would guess yes for the latter, just because the Bay Area is pretty fiercely regulated in this wise), but it's definitely the right price.

I have no idea how many rooms
28 rooms. AND -- hey, erika! -- "Advance arrangements may be made with responsible owners to accommodate their pet." W00t!!!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
28 rooms.
There's an argument to decide dates and location ASAP. If we give them enough advance notice, we could book the entire hotel (and maybe get an even better deal!).

Though the rooms don't have private baths; they're shared baths, which is a deal-breaker for me.

You've shared a bathroom with Perkins and Jess before (among others I may be un-remembering). Just make sure you're on the floor with them.
