Hi,
As I am preparing to leave, I was checking a few basic things, which I couldn't find in the documentation https://wikimania2016.wikimedia.org/wiki/Accommodation/Esino_Lario. Maybe it is obvious, or I overlooked it - apologies in that case.
I was wondering what exactly is provided for in the accommodation. It's shared and simple rooms, probably with shared bathrooms etc. Could you confirm it's a cheap hotel-like setting, where bed sheets, towels etc are provided for? It would save me luggage, so that would be great :) And am I correct to assume that toiletries are available somewhere in the village if need be?
Thanks for confirming!
Hmmm. According to the "Getting Ready" page[1], if you are assigned to a guesthouse or flat, they will provide bedding and towels. I think it would be safe to assume the same for hotel rooms (although it is not specified). However, there is specifically no mention of whether one needs to bring bedding/towels for the "specialty lodging" (dormitory).
This was one of the reasons I wanted to know where I was staying, because I would have asked this very question myself if I'd been assigned to "specialty lodging".
