* See: NIST [http://www.nist.gov/public_affairs/visitor/index.cfm visitor information]. We opted out of hotel packages because most organizations tell us that they can get the same or cheaper rates on their own. (We were told the hotels that you are there to attend a meeting at NIST, they will give you a good rate.) The NIST visitor info page provides a list of hotels and other local assets: http://www.nist.gov/public_affairs/visitor/index.cfm
