Travel Note
Stay closer into the city near the Willamette River. It's only about a 15min drive to the venue from most parts of the city and there are so many cute areas where you can walk to coffee, restaurants, shops and things to do. Although it looks convenient to stay near the venue & airport on a map, it is more industrial. You'll have a better experience being closer to the city action :)
