Zivilschutzbunker
We can offer free/sponsored hosting for about 20 men and 5 woman (separate room) in a so called Zivilschutzbunker below the premisses of the ETH. It's a bit like a sports hall and contains banks with bedsheets as well as sanitary installations.
The advantage for all attendees who want to stay there is central location and the holiday camp like feeling. The rooms are reserved from Friday the 17th September 'till Monday the 20th September. You would like to stay there? Please leave us a note at: contact@froscamp.org.
