The OryCon29 rate is no longer available at the
Marriott.
We completely used
up our allocated block, which is good in that it makes the
hotel happy with us, but bad in that it means some
attendees may not get the discounted rate.
Check with
Patty and
Arthur
to see if someone has released a reservation, but at
this late date you may want to simply make alternative
plans.
University Place (the hotel Portland State bought)
has rooms available for our convention attendees.
The University Place Hotel & Conference Center is
located on the southwest corner of SW 4th Avenue &
Lincoln Street. Phone: (503) 221-0140
The hotel will meet our $106 rate at the Marriott, and
their parking is $12/night. Be sure to mention OryCon.
Again, email
Patty and
Arthur
instead of contacting the hotel. If you cancel that
reservation through the hotel, that room rate is gone.
If we instead transfer it to somebody else's name, we
keep the room rate. Yes it's a labor intensive process
but it does help minimize the cost of hotel
rooms for latecomers.
