The top row of the Web schedule groups rooms as Hynes (the columns on the left) or Sheraton (the columns on the right). The top of the schedule page has maps for each floor of each building.

Another neat thing - if you have the guidebook app, each panel has the listing of the room its in as part of the detailed view. Click on the room name, and it'll open the map view and mark on the map where it is.

the map says the artist alley is on the second floor so, does that mean it connects to the 2nd floor of the hotel[where registration is]?

You're a little confused. Artist Alley is on the 2nd floor of the Hynes, while this is on the second floor of the Sheraton. These are two separate (but connected) buildings.

second floor of the Hynes which translates to third floor of the Sheraton ;)

Unless you have a real need (like a medical disability) I wouldn't use elevators to go between the first, second, and third floors of the Sheraton. There are multiple wide staircases going from floors 1, 2 and 3 right in the middle of the con space.

ok, one more time, with feeling!

The Artist Alley is Hynes 2nd floor, which has a hallway into Sheraton's 3rd floor!
Once you're in the Sheraton, there will be a big wide staircase on the RIGHT (so u walked in, walked down the hallway, saw some big windows, then buncha cushy seats and there will be a big carpeted staircase goin down)
(if u went LEFT you'd end up by the Manga Library instead, and overlook the entrance into the Mall/aka Sheraton 2nd floor)

now that you're on correct floor you just happen to be on opposite end of where the thing is.. you should be able to find the correct panel room. Are you any less confused now?
