Without Breakfast, possibly extra option if my schedule allows Guest access Access to rear section of silo, suitable for 2 to 5 people in one group. If there are more guests, I can help find other sleeping places with colleagues nearby Other things to note Take into account the noise of traffic on the highway and airplanes (nothing to hear inside, silo is well insulated). Silo is on a farm, so cows, chickens or a dog can walk in the "front yard" Price does not include tourist tax, this must still be paid during the stay.
