My brother Gareth and I are staying at the Calafia, which is the sister
hotel of the Araiza. Anyone want to look us up, we're under Steven
Davies-Morris, arriving sometime after 3pm on Friday. We promise to blare
"Green Miata Baja Bound" loudly as we cross the border and again when we
pull into the hotel parking lot!
The rate was $73 a night per room for a 2 double bed room, so that seems
reasonable for what looks like quite a nice hotel. I didn't ask about
single bed room prices -- sorry. But tell them that you're there for Baja
Prog and that you want the convention rate.
It's quite exciting to hear that the Araiza is all booked up. The
reservations desk clerk told me that it's because of Baja Prog. He seemed
pretty excited about the festival and what it means to Mexicali. Fingers
crossed for a really good turn-out!
The reservations desk number for both the Araiza & the Calafia is
1-877-7-ARAIZA. Very helpful and knowledgeable.
