[Wikimedia-l] Big Fat Brussels Gathering

Thu Mar 7 11:29:44 UTC 2013

Hi Dimi,

the people at Brel are quite flexible, so I guess you could book the hostel
beds for those that want to stay there (in one/a few rooms) if enough in
advance. Probably you could arrange that people pay themselves. I stayed
there a few times now, and they are decent but not awesome (it's a hostel).
In the region there are not many cheap places (yay european civil
servants!). Their meeting facilities seemed at the time indeed the easiest
too - but perhaps you find something better.
