travel and accommodations

Please add information to the wiki page or to blog if you need assistance with booking a place to stay or travel. I have some personal questions in red. Hopefully everyone has bought their plane tickets by now.

Geneva Accomodations

There is 2 possible hostels which are near to the airport (takes 10 minate by car) and seems good to stay.

One is geneva youth hostel (http://www.genevahostel.ch/en/index.html)
, and the other is city hostel. (http://www.cityhostel.ch/english/index.html)

The price for dorms of geneva youth hostel is CHF 35 per person including breakfast, and that of the city hostel is CHF 32 per person without breakfast.

I think the city hostel looks newer and cleaner comparing to the other. If you don't mind about the breakfast, I would like to make a reservation for the city hostel dorms.

Any thought?
