Fact That May Only Interest Me

Someone pointed out to me that my mentions of the
US Grant in a recent
Comic-Con survivor's guide failed to note that the Grant would be closed this year. I took the hotel's statement that they would re-open in July at face value, particularly considering they were part of the Comic-Con's official con hotels. Turns out this person was right: the venerable hotel will be closed until late December at the earliest. Although it isn't my kind of story, I have to imagine that losing a block of rooms makes the San Diego Con lodging situation that much tighter. Although I've long believed that no one deserves the room they want simply by wanting it, one hopes that special consideration is given to people who signed up in good faith through CCI's service when they could have pursued rooms in other ways.
