Travel to Campus	The University of Washington is located in the U-District of Seattle. More than 60 bus routes serve the U-District, including many that drive onto the campus itself. You may also take the train or light rail to downtown Seattle, then transfer to a bus for a quick ride to the University. Seattle is served by Sea-Tac International Airport, about 20 minutes away though not during morning rush 6:30AM to 10:30AM. Count on an hour then. A cab will be about $60. If you are driving, here are instructions: http://admit.washington.edu/Visit/Directions
Parking	I am looking into parking at Talaris. It might be free. Stay tuned. ~~Parking on campus is limited. You will need to pay for your own parking if you drive. See the Spring F2F Parking Page for details if you are driving to campus.~~
Hotels	NOTE: The Venue Has Changed! You can stay at the new conference venue: http://www.talarisconferencecenter.com/ See the Spring F2F Hotel Page for details. The UW does have a price agreement with several hotels close to campus. (I do not care for the Deca Hotel. It isn't bad but it also isn't good. YMMV. - ed.)
Other info	The U-District has a lot of "college" restaurants. Nearby is University Village - an open-air mall with several better restaurants. The nearby neighborhood of Wallingford has lots of good restaurants. There are two small art galleries on campus. There is good bus service downtown. Rowing is really big in the area and you can always go to a bridge and watch crew.
