Title: Need Ideas - room/hotel/????
Post by: Matt4x4 on May 01, 2010, 02:33:52 PM

OK now that I am back in Calgary I have to find a place to stay. Not looking for any contracted leases.

Hostel does not take "locals" for a good reason, I'm sure. First time I've heard of that, they do require picture ID just like Vancouver.

My plan A is rooming board I found online. Good neighborhood, home owner sounds good.
Good stuff, but I need a plan B and or C in case this does not pan out.

I can afford hotel/motel for a night or two, no problem, might phone up banff trail motel on 16ave see what their price is. Hopefully in the $50-$70 range is what im looking for.

Ambassadors website rate is $100 (16ave and deerfoot) renfrew area.

Got to stick around for 2 months to 3 months.

I found a place on Kijiji for $24 a night down in Bridlewood near the Sobeys mall.

Its a good score for last minute and will keep in mind for the future.
