Ahh, so the regular 15-30 minute waits that I and others experienced didn't really happen? We must have just had bad timing. (The bus between the venue and my hotel ran, at most, twice an hour. And my hotel was one of the ones recommended on the IETF site.)

And, of course, all of this would have been additionally delightful if we had had to wait in the rain. I'm told that it does rain occasionally in The Netherlands.

In any event, taking a bus to/from one's hotel is different from needing to take it to get any variety in lunch. Anecdotes about someone having done this do not make it reasonable for 1000 attendees to rely on it.
