Accommodations
The most convenient hotel to get to the meeting location is the Campus Tower Suite Hotel
Other hotels on Whyte Ave are almost as convenient (but often more expensive)
Downtown has a lot of good hotels, campus can be reached by LRT (~8 min ride)

A budget friendly offering on Campus is the University Hotel, but the reservation process is more complicated and the rooms are very basic

Getting here:
- Uber, Taxis (~$65/trip) or the hotel shuttle ($18/trip) will bring you from the airport to downtown or the University area. There is also a bus (line 747) but it requires $5 cash and runs only once per hour. The bus drops you off at the southern LRT station from where the LRT will take you to the University or downtown.
