It’s travel-planning time for ISVCon 2012. For those of us who prefer to have either printable maps and guides, or the smart-phone downloadable equivalents, here are some links for getting from Reno International Airport to the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa and the downtown area.

Once you’re at ISVCon at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa, there is an RTC bus stop outside the hotel. Go North for downtown, get off at the Transit Center, and walk 2 blocks west (towards the Sierra Nevada mountains, frequently visible, or towards the big buildings) for the downtown area. Bus fare is $2. For the ‘Rapid’ bus to downtown (express run, fewer stops), there’s a stop just south of Atlantis, by the Convention Center.
