The Marriott is a viable option.  I've stayed there on business.

than walking around the CP area.  Times have changed, yes.  So have ways to deal with 
times changing.

I personally know of two assaults on contesters, one requiring medical 
attention, within the immediate area around the CP last year. My last trip to 
Dayton in 2018 I was with the K9PG group dining at a great BBQ place south of 
the CP and it was just starting to get 'sketchy' then. (we never did find a 
good place that sold milk shakes afterwards) Stay in groups and be aware of 
your surroundings.

I'm only familiar with the area immediately adjacent to the CrownPlaza, so I can't speak 
about the "Oregon area".

In my (mis-spent) youth in the Navy I navigated a lot of dark and sketchy 
waterfronts in down-scale foreign ports.

In none of them was I ever so apprehensive for my safety as I was this
last May after the Contest Dinner walking
2 blocks from CP to where my vehicle was parked in a surface lot.
Approached twice with offers of intimate horizontal refreshment and once by a pair of 
fellows desiring "money for the bus".
