Actually it is hosted by the Ayuntamiento de Zaragoza (i.e. the city council, who have been a member for about a decade, and do a lot of good stuff. I just asked around for a host and passed on their very generous offer).

I can't fill in the survey yet ;(

My preference is Zaragoza. It's about the same pain to get there from the airport (without having to rent a car), but you end up in Zaragoza, which costs much less than Redmond, has a real city with life, bars, history, architecture, and everything is walkable with a good public transport system as well.

Plus it has been 2 1/2 years since we met in Europe (compared to twice in a year on the West Coast - beating our long term average of 1 and a bit times / year).
