For those staying at the Stanford Guest House:
Housing:
You will be staying at the Stanford Guest House, 2575 Sand Hill Road, Menlo Park, California. (650) 926-2800. http://www.stanford.edu/dept/rde/guesthouse/index.htm
Your room has been booked, under your name, and charged to our meeting account. You can check in anytime after 3 pm on Thursday, May 13.
Maps and directions to the Guest House can be obtained here: http://www.stanford.edu/dept/rde/guesthouse/directions.htm
If you are arriving directly from SFO, we recommend the Super Shuttle service for a door-to-door trip (approximately $30 USD each way, for which you will be reimbursed).
Your room comes with a continental breakfast and an internet connection, laundry and many of the usual amenities found in a hotel.
Transportation:
The Stanford Guest House is located off-campus. In order to get to campus, we recommend:
1) The Marguerite Shuttle. The Marguerite is the Stanford campus bus service and runs on a regular schedule Monday to Friday. For your purposes, then, this will be the easiest way to get to campus on Friday morning. You will be taking the SLAC line, which will be running to campus approximately every 20 minutes starting at 7:50 or so. To make the 9:00 am start time, I suggest taking either the 8:10 or 8:30 bus. This is a free shuttle service. The full schedule for the SLAC line is at: http://transportation.stanford.edu/marguerite/schedules/SLAC_4-2-2007.htm
2) If you have rented a car, on-campus parking information can be found here: http://transportation.stanford.edu/parking_info/ParkingInformation.shtml , or see the recommended parking instructions under “Meeting Location” above.
3) It is also possible to walk, though it is quite a long walk, from the Guest House to campus. I make the walk once or twice a week – at a fairly brisk pace you can count on an hour from door to door. Ask the Guest House staff for directions if you are going to walk.
On Saturday: we have booked the Stanford Guest House van to transport all meeting attendees staying at the Guest House. The van will leave at 8:30 am.
Note: On Friday, we will discuss transportation options for returning to the Guest House after the group dinner on Friday, and any evening events on Saturday.
