Please support the conference by staying at the conference hotel.
The IEEE Photonics Society agreement with the conference hotel includes a contracted sleeping room commitment. Without this, the conference registration would be much more expensive. The IEEE Photonics Society realizes that you can stay at other hotels, but doing so will negatively impact this conference and will lead to higher registration fees in the future.
