There's two main places to park near the Leonardo Hotel.

✨ Freecycle Table ✨
Got stuff cluttering up your desk?
Pushed under the bed?
Stuff tthe Bring and Buy won't suit?
In the bar we’ll be managing a ‘freecycle table’. If you put it down, it’s fair game for another attendee to treasure forever. But don’t go overboard and leave the kitchen sink, okay?
