Accommodation
Please be aware that the Covid-19 regulations in Germany and at the University are such that require the use of a FFP2 grade face mask. The use of face visors instead of a FFP2 mask is not permitted. You can find more information here.
Exemptions are available to those able to present appropriate medical evidence, and to those who have hearing impairments (and their interpreters) such that prevent the use of a mask.
People are exempt from the obligation to wear a mask if they can credibly demonstrate that they are unable or cannot reasonably be expected to wear a medical mask for health reasons or other compelling reasons or for similarly weighty and undeniable reasons in individual cases. Justification based on health reasons should be provided in the form of a medical certificate. This certificate must be carried at all times and shown on request.
Information here is based on the University of Freiburg covid-19 regulations.
The conference will take place at KGI, Altstadt, 79098 Freiburg im Breisgau

Those looking for more affordable/alternative lodgings can use peer-reviewed travel advice or accommodation sites such as Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Lonely Planet etc. If you are thinking of renting a place for the week where you can do your own cooking and may-be share the costs with colleagues/family, look at Airbnb.com or Booking.com (look for Apartments in the Property type filter).
For those who want to meet locals, yet keep their costs to an absolute minimum, we recommend looking at couch-surfing sites:
