I had the feeling last year that it might have been better to make the 'in' spot on the other side of the bay though... people can potentially walk/ride if it's closer to town/transport/trains. Aloft was a bit inconvenient for any without cars and not staying at Aloft.

Speaking of which - have you got hotel covered Manu - I always try to be economical and am willing to book a room to share. :)

Sorry I said it wrong! For the first 2 days, we gathered afterward at aloft. On the third day, I left from the airport, I have no idea if people gathered there or not!
