[edit] The Gym

The gym is available to 25C3 visitors between 26th and 31st.

Oberschule am Köllnischen Park
Neue Roßstr. 5
U-Märkisches Museum
GPS: N52°30.656' E013°24.586'

This is how the Gym looks like in the morning.

Looks like this is the gym from last year.
The gym's location is about 1.5km from the BCC and about 800m from the c-base.
- Route from BCC to Gym
- HOWTO get to the gym by underground
You can easily walk or use the next subwaystation - Märkisches Museum.
The cost for one night is 5 Euro.
You can get tickets at the cash desk within the BCC.

Actually the looks and the "sound" of the Gym reminded me of this. Remember to be deaf, drunk or in posession of earplugs before chosing the Gym :-).

[edit] Hostels and Hotels

please note: User:Docsteel has acquired a A&O Special Price check it out!

Those with no accommodation in Berlin at hand can select from a variety of hotels and hostels. We recommend mentioning the Chaos Communication Congress. This will sometimes give you better prices and sometimes help you get a shared room with other hackers. Book early, because hotel schedules are getting tight!

There are several backpacker hostels and inexpensive hotels in Berlin offering accommodation in single or double bedrooms for little money per night. These hostels are usually available on short-term booking, however, demand is high during the Congress. We strongly recommend timely booking. Some hotels will offer a small discount when "CCC" is mentioned.

Got some spare floor space to offer? Or maybe a mattress? Or even a bed? Then please Adopt A Geek by sending your offer to the geeks.

Interesting info: Name+email+fon, address, bus/train stop, distance to congress, internet (cable,wifi), floor/mattress/bed, shower (+soap ;-), and whether you are charging anything (washing sheets+towels, sharing of internet, cost of gas, heating, and water).

And remember: First come, first serve! ;-)

[edit] Couchsurfing

The couchsurfing.com community offers a lot of open flats to foreigners. Mind you, the community is intended to connect people, not just to offer a free bed.
