Click the hotel link above and then "VIEW PHOTOS" (just below the big banner photo) for lots of hotel photos with 360° scrolling!Having an official conference hotel facilitated socializing after hours, arranging carpools, comparing programming techniques while enjoying either the indoor pool or the outdoor whirlpool, and so on. Because enough rooms were reserved, the hotel waived the fee for the conference room, which in turn reduced every attendee’s conference fee.
