Accommodation

We will stay in the BaseCamp Bonn, Germany for the whole week (or weekend, depending on how long you can stay).

The cost is
27 Euro / night for a twobed sleeper-train compartment or
38 Euro / night, if you prefer not to share, but take the room alone.

Please contact Torsten prior to booking, for coordination, as for example we try to get a few compartments near each other an we already pre-booked for the TikiFestDevOps.

For the DevOps there was a funding suggested by Citadelrock (BaseCamp as TikiHouse), so in this respect it is important aswell, that you contact Torsten prior to booking.
