89 7 laforge
Berlin has two active airports during OsmoDevCon2012: Tegel (TXL) and Schoenefeld (SXF).  Neither of the two
90 6 laforge
is exactly close to the venue, so pick whatever works best for you.
91
92
From SXF you can take local trains (S-Bahn), switch at Ostkreuz into another train and exit at Jannowitzbruecke.
93
You will need a "Berlin ABC" ticket.
94
95
From TXL, FIXME.  You will need a "Berlin AB" ticket.
96
97
=== Train ===
98
99
You can take long distance trains to ''Berlin Ostbahnhof'', which is only one S-Bahn stop away from Jannowitzbruecke, where C-Base is located
100
101
=== Public Transport ===
102
103
Check http://www.bvg.de/ for maps, tariffs, etc.
104
105
=== Car ===
106
107
There is some public parking in Rungestrasse where c-base is located, but it is always very crowded.  Parking your car there is thus not recommended.
108
109
== Accomodation ==
110
111
Berlin has tons of options, from very cheap to plush and expensive.  Pick your favourite.
112
113
The closest low-end option in walking distance is the A&O Hostel Berlin Mitte, which has both a hotel as well as a hostel:
114
