Re: [Cz-L] Radautz Street Addresses

[Plain text please... thanks]

When I was in Radautz with Merle Kastner last july, we were in Hotel Maria
(near Gerald's hotel) and the price for a single is 35 $ and a double room
is 40$ : it was a nice room and very calm. the breakfast was included ,
simple and fresh.
