Paulie_D:
Is there a player briefing anywhere yet?
ShadowBJ21:
Some important informations to those staying at the Orange Wings:
While it is a nice basic and clean hotel (I stay there every time I go to the Royale) you should be aware that there is
- no hairdryer and no shampoo/soap in the bathroom ... so you better bring your own.
- The counter is open only for a few hours a day. You can check in electronically but you need a creditcard AND your booking ID for that process.
- Some rooms are equipped with a combinded TV/Computer (that also connects to the internet). If you bring your Laptop you can use the cable from the computer for your own Laptop. Some rooms have no computer. In that case they have no cable, too. So if you bring your Laptop don"t forget the network cable. Internet access is free (and usually is down for about 2 hours late night 2-4am for whatever reason)
No wireless internet!
- Breakfast is basic but o.k. (but it"s not included in the room price)
- There"s a McDonalds not too far (which also has breakfast till 11 or so). Beside that there"s not much around as the hotel is in an industrial area of Wiener Neustadt.
- The hotel has a small machine that has some drinks (like coke and water) and chocolate, chips and that stuff.
- If you are on public transport you have to travel into Vienna and from there to Wiener Neustadt with a regular train as said before. From the Main Station in Wiener Neustadt there"s a bus (I think it"s called "Linie G") that stops directly at the hotel (Stop is called "Arena Nova"). This Bus runs only every 30 min. and there"s no service on Sundays!
Hope this helps
