From the Accreditation Coordinator:

"I would feel completely comfortable using TRAX; I would opt to use a taxi if arriving late in the evening." Lodging Accommodation Information

The recommendation is to staying in a hotel in the Downtown area (1-3, 5, 7-8). You will have a lot more choices for evening dining. You can use TRAX Green Line (no transfer involved) to get to these hotels from Airport and/or the Cannon Building. Using the TRAX Green Line, it takes about 15 minutes from the Cannon Building to one of these Downtown hotels, and the cost is $2.50 each way.
