What is the best method for arriving at Pocatello?

The Conference Committee recommends that attendees make flight arrangements to Salt Lake City, Utah, and either rent a vehicle to drive to Pocatello (2.5 hour drive) or take one of the two available travel shuttles to Pocatello, Idaho. The Conference Committee has provided Travel Recommendations.

If I take one of the travel shuttles from Salt Lake City to Pocatello, how will I get from the Conference Hotels to the Conference Hall for the technical sessions?

Why are there two Conference Hotels and is there a difference in hotel quality?

With the number of travelers that visit Pocatello each summer en route to Yellowstone National Park, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Montana, there was no single hotel that could house all of the anticipated AccApp'07 attendees. Thus, two of the best Pocatello hotels were selected as the Conference Hotels. There is no significant quality difference between the Hotels.
