The CAA4 organizing team have made arrangements with the historic Holland Hotel in Alpine, Texas for attendees to get a 5% discount. Give them discount code "CAA4". So start reserving your rooms now as this event is at the same time as their balloon festival!
They only have 24 rooms in the main hotel, so make your reservations soon.
