I see. For me it would also work driving to Seattle on Friday, having the
hackathon on Saturday, Sunday and flying home on Monday. Something like
that.

I really liked the initial idea of having a dedicated time and place for
CRIU.

I had a quick look at coworking places in Vancouver and one example I
found is:

http://ateliervancouver.com/bookings/

They offer a meeting room for 8-10 people for 160$ for 8 hours. So if we
stay Friday and Saturday in Vancouver it will be 320$ which is probably
cheaper than travelling to Seattle and hotel for all of us.

Would that also be a possibility?
