Hotel or Dreamville?

Hotel
A real bed, a shower and some quiet after the festival. You commute every day, but a regular ticket or a Day Pass is enough.
Dreamville
A few minutes from the entrance, with The Gathering on Thursday. More atmosphere, but you need a Dreamville package bought with the ticket.
