Agree with bbbvito - save the hassle

Thks to yoy I've got the hankie code sorted, so I'll go cruising with you guys - single or twin I'm easy (shhhh, don't tell the missus..)

:p
 
I've contacted 3 hotels now - all fully booked. I think the 6 single rooms is putting people off.

Mailed one more. If this fails we'll go to plan B. In any case I'll book those who would like to stay at the Kreuz and Post shortly.
