The place in Strassen is quite close to being perfect...it has 4 separate classrooms which are about 60m2 each. Every room has a seperate lock on the door. There are 4 toilets for each sex and a small "serverroom" where the existing cabling infrastructure comes together.

Situation is this : We need to wait on a meeting with the local mayor only then will we be able to fix rent charges, possibilities, etc.

In the meantime, situation is excellent...bus is just 50m away, parking spaces about 20 in front, 50 more further away. Direct proximity to "[http://www.lesthermes.net Les Thermes]" and its Restaurant/Bar facilities.
