Karen JohnsonApril 11, 2016Great place for a conference. The #AERA16 conference is here. The metro stop takes you to the convention center & the Marriott Hotel is attached to the convention centerUpvoted 2 weeks ago
Dani ElleOctober 1, 2012Much better (cleaner, larger) venue than the last location. There are parking lots/garages nearby. Better yet, take the Metro, bus, or Circulator.

- Brett R.February 15, 2017A nice building with lots of good spaces, but it needs better disability access, and the food court staff were very disorganized.

Stacey PostonDecember 9, 2014do a little exploring to enjoy all the amazing art, especially Black Star Line by Radcliffe Bailey on the 2nd floor.
Ryan MontgomeryAugust 18, 2019If you want food without waiting in line to re-enter the building, whatever you do don't get the pizza outside Hall D. I thought pizza was a safe choice, but it was nasty even by con food standards.
Great venue for conferences. Discovered coffee in the cafeteria is surprisingly good. Starbucks here is a rip off, there's a cheaper one across the street at the Renaissance.
