Since there doesn't appear to be a 2018 thread yet, I'll ask here:

Any pro-tips for bringing an infant to GenCon?

The baby will be.. 8 months at GenCon time. Combo breast and bottle will hopefully make it easy for us to hand baby back and forth so one of us can maybe win the Settlers tournament for once.

I never seem to manage a good hotel room from the housing block, but end up getting an okay downtown one after. I have heard the attached Marriott has had a lot of HVAC problems, so I suppose we'll shoot for the Hyatt or the Crowne with the creepy train ghosts. Are there other attached hotels I'm forgetting?

The JW Mariott, which is different from the Mariott. Also, the Westin. The Westin would be ideal, because it's centrally located (its skyway access dumps you into the ICC right next to Will Call).

Forgot about the Westin. Thanks!

Is the JW attached? I remember having to go outside, same as the Omni. Is there some kinda tunnel or something?
