Anything in the metro area of Seattle and Portland will be close to all the festivities. As there will be mostly Seattle folks (likely staying in their own homes on Saturday night ) we don't have enough RSVP'ed needing a hotel to negotiate a group rate. I'll see if I can't find some recommendations for you though.
Yes a group of us will be heading down to Portland arriving Friday late afternoon is the plan. We can definitely meetup that evening!

We are less then 2 weeks away from 8998FEST so here are all the final details that you may find helpful for the event.
First of all, if you are looking for a hotel in Portland on Friday night there are two hotels that have been recommended by locals.
The Century Hotel: http://www.thecenturyhotel.com/ Rooms here range from 179-189. We have a group rate for this hotel. Mention 8998FEST and the room rates will be 159-169. Please call them at 503.692.3600 to get this rate!

I repeat the offer for a few to stay at my house in Portland, close to Steve's talk the following morning. The rates are cheap(1-large dark beer), have several empty bedrooms, safe and good parking, including 1-empty garage spot.
I don't recall ever receiving an offer like this!

Dinner Friday is at Gustavs German restaurant just off of hywy 217 and Greenberg ave. at 7 pm. (There are a few gustav locations. This is near Washington square mall). Let FSA (Fred ) or myself know if you haven't already that you will be there so we can have enough seating reserved. Look forward to seeing everyone.
