So, assuming 300 attendees and an even split between the hotels (of
course, actual data will be quite different), this results in a price
difference in favor of Managua of US$16,500 _daily_. US$115,500 for
the full DebConf week (BH total US$168,000; Managua total
US$52,500). Staying 100% at the more expensive hotel, Managua total
US$63,000. Not considering DebCamp.

Again, taking as a baseline 300 people, just for the DebConf
week... If breakfast is included, US$17 * 3 (meals a day) * 7 (days) *
300 (people) = US$107,100 for BH (US$71,400 skipping breakfast).
Taking the medium point (US$7), three meals a day in Managua would be
US$44,100. Taking only the more expensive meal (US$9), three meals a
day in Managua would be US$56,700.

Ok. We are not buying beer to our people (maybe some sponsor will),
and the coffee breaks are nice but skippable, so I'm not taking those
into account.
Of course, many people will pay for their own lodging and food, and we
don't know if we are having 300 people, fewer or more. And DebCamp is
smaller, but is not ignorable. But I think having the totalized
numbers are important.
