Hotels in Ludlow, VT

There are loads of hostel style places in the big cities where are you going? K's hostels are pretty good, about 2,500 per night.

I'm assuming you're staying in Tokyo? Around Minami Senju there are a few cheap ryokan/hostels; I've stayed at [New Koyo](http://www.newkoyo.com/) twice. **$25/night for a private room**; nice place and you won't find cheaper. I'd also recommend the [Super Hotel](http://www.superhotel.co.jp/en/) chain for cities you wander into without a place to stay. Clean, easy and cheap (especially if you're splitting the room with another person).

Check this page: http://www.hostelworld.com There's a lot of cheap hostels in [Osaka](http://www.hostelworld.com/findabed.php/ChosenCity.Osaka/ChosenCountry.Japan/OrderBy.price) (1500-2000 yen per night). Most of them are pretty central, though in a very run down area. I've stayed in 'Hotel Chuo' and 'Hotel Taiyo'. Very simple small rooms but cheap as hell. [Edit] Holy shit. I looked up the area on [Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinsekai) and it seems to have a bad reputation. Didn't seem so bad when I was there though there were a lot of homeless everywhere.

How about [couchsurfing](http://www.couchsurfing.org/)? Me and my girlfriend used it while travelling around Tasmania and mainland Australia, and most often we got ourselves a bed. The way it works is you let the host know at least a couple of days beforehand that you're arriving to host's hometown/-city, and they'll give you a couch, a bed or sometimes just a floor to sleep on. All for free! Sometimes users won't reply, which you can try to avoid by searching users with full reply percentage. My general complaint was that the big city hosts in Australia tended to be a lot busier and didn't take their time to reply anything to couch requests. This could be different in Japan. Also, take your time to explain yourself in your profile and have a picture of yourself.

Staying where? Accommodations in Tokyo are a lot more than in BFE, Japan. Be specific.

What area are you going to anyway? Pick an area first then a place to stay.

There's no reason to blow money on food. One meal at an awesome sushi place, sure, but every block has an out-of-the-way ramen shop that will serve the best meal you've ever had for like $4. Hotels are pricey, and though you may be able to find some place cheap, that will be the most significant cost of travel to japan after airfare (like every other destination). The B hotel chain has reasonable prices for a room with a private bath. Capsule hotels are cheap. Ryokans have good prices, but you'll pay to bathe (somewhere else). Subway is cheap- transportation will not, will not be a problem. I understand that travelling on a budget is important, but japan is expensive: you will pay good money just to sleep, no matter what you do. If you want true budget accomadations, pick a destination like Thailand or Cambodia.

Khaosan Ninja and Khaosan Samurai are also fantastic hostels that are very affordable if you're in Tokyo.

Where are you traveling in Japan?

I just came on here to post the same question. I am just going to try to leech off of his instead of write my own. There is going to be 5 of us, and we would like to not have to split up. We will be there from May 9 th-16 th, and would like to be in the heart of the action if we could.. But sadly we are poor too. Suggestions? A lot of the hostels are hard to book for a whole week, specially for 5 people. Edit: What would be the best neighborhood in Tokyo to be nearest to the action??

[Cheapest Option](http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=capsule+hotel)

A ryokan is definitely what I would recommend - they're actually more than decent. I've stayed in one before and liked it.

shin-osaka youth hostel is where i stayed. its like a 5 min walk to shin-osaka eki. and totally a badass hostel. they have the bamboo charcoal onsen style bathing area. holy shit, you'll never want to stop bathing that way once you start. the people there are insanely nice. and tell shintaro hello if you see him.

couch surf!

OMG I know this one [Try Lurking Here](http://www.homeaway.com/)

For a week in Tokyo, the best I know so far are weekly mansions - like [this](http://www.wmt.co.jp/en/), with nice single rooms at as low as $60 per night. However I don't yet have personal experience; I'll have visitors in September that are going to stay there. Hostels should be less expensive, but I haven't really been looking at those.

Repost from PM: This awesome, awesome place: http://www.toukaisou.com/index.html It's affordable, nearby a 24/7 grocery store and McD's (both will save you a ton on food), a couple blocks away from the subway, and the staff are all cool young people who speak English and go the extra mile to help you. It's not really centrally located, but that's pretty irrelevant in a place like Tokyo. Still, it's near the awesome Sensoji temple (the most famous in Japan), and you can walk or more likely bike it to Akiba (Electric City).

Try youth hostels, love hotels, capsule hotels, or Couchsurfing. You can also WOOF in some parts of Japan.

Look up places to stay on couchsurfing.com They let you crash at their places for free and you can be sure that someone is safe to stay with depending on their reviews and ratings from other people who have stayed with them. Can you say Free 99?

I don't know about Tokyo specifically but I always recommend ryokan and minshuku over hotels - they are cheaper and much more fun.

I’ve heard some really bad things about Ports hotel ..

AirBnb?

[www.airbnb.ca](https://www.airbnb.ca) \- leading competitor [www.vrbo.com](https://www.vrbo.com) \- been operating since 1996 [www.homeaway.com](https://www.homeaway.com) \- parent company to VRBO [www.booking.com](https://www.booking.com) \- another popular one [www.flipkey.com](https://www.flipkey.com) \- advised by TripAdvisor ​ Heard good things about these and have personally used airbnb, vrbo and flipkey! But not longer than a week with no problems. Goodluck! ​ ​ ​ ​

i looked for options maybe 2 years ago. ports hotel or airbnb (or similiar service) were the economical options. ports is pretty rough though... it is a long way from staying at a hotel chain. they will show you a room before you commit. suggest you call them and look before staying there.... meaningful compromise.

I can't help you with a house, but what about getting 3 or 4 connecting rooms? You don't want to sleep 20 people in a single room, but 5 in a room might not be so bad. If you book them together, you'll get the rooms with the doors between, or at LEAST in a row together.

I'd say give this site a try, hopefully you'll find something that matches what you're looking for: http://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rentals/nevada/las-vegas/r2079

Might want to try vrbo.com

Rent a suite? taxis and shuttles are easier to come by......just a thought

vrbo.com. Cheapest and best vacation house rentals.

Just google Las Vegas house rentals. I've rented homes two years in a row for edc and it has been awesome.

I've used both vrbo.com and homeaway.com to stay at houses in vegas quite a few times. I've never been scammed or had any problems. I've always made sure to reserve a house that has positive reviews in the comments, it kinda gives me a sense of security in doing so.

If you want something between a hostel and a hotel, Native Hostel may actually be something you like.

7 th and Neches is the closest you’ll get between a hotel and hostel. Very authentic experience.

Yes, definitely. HomeAway is HQd here. [Thebindel.com](https://Thebindel.com) is for furnished sublets Landing is an app for furnished apts. Homestay is like a cross between Couchsurfing and AirBnB- owner occupied (not necessarily present during your stay)

Guild. They have a few locations

https://www.homeaway.com/ I’ve had good experience using this instead of Airbnb

Not exactly. You can however pitch a tent anywhere you like :-)

Couchsurfing

I don't know what "between a hostel and a hotel" or "room/home exchanges" means, but two alternatives to Airbnb are Sonder and Domio. In my experience, they tend to play by local STR rules and offer a more consistent product than Air or VRBO.

I use [Trip Advisor](https://www.tripadvisor.com) .

https://www.turnkeyvr.com/

I just went to the site and looked real quick and found this one. Most don't even mention an age limit... https://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p344643

Try flip-key and also check out Craigslist for that area ! You will find great deals ! https://www.flipkey.com/book/saint-augustine-beach/222604616/

House of Sea and Sun. It is a bed & breakfast on the beach. Beautiful home that used to be owned by the Flagler's of Flagler College in St Augustine. They have a website.

Have Stayed at Holiday Isle in St Augustine several times check with them on the Beach have pool real nice for a hotel.

I just vacationed to 2 beaches this year and all they said was 18+. Check Homeaway.com my condo in Daytona was like $140 a night.

Check Kayak.com for rates. I find the cheapest hotels there. They compare all the travel sites in one place.

Thanks, Lynn, Adair Springs Cabin is booked until Sep 1 but if you check homeaway.com or Airbnb.com you should find something. www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p247411

We stayed at this lovely B&B/vineyard/olive orchard. http://www.la-croix-du-verre.com Its a lovely spot, very accomodating hosts with a great central-ish location (in terms of the Rhone wine region as a whole) and easy access to highways.

We also stayed in the center of Avignon - thinking it would be a great staging area for the southern Rhone and Southeastern Rhone. (found an adequate apartment on homeaway.com) Nah - not so much. We found only mediocre restaurants (very glad we had a kitchen and the cenetral market is GREAT!) and extremely congested streets (lots of college students.) West of the city is lovely (across the river.) Southeast of the city is also ok.

Stayed at the Royal Lahaina a couple months ago. Stayed in an oceanside cottage building E. It has a big tree out back for shade, and the pathway to the beach was less than 10 feet from the Lanai. All the oceanside cottages have beach access, but we were furthest from the pool. Which was nice because it was quiet. Room was air conditioned. We had a kitchen with a stove, large refrigerator, and dishes / silverware. Bottom rooms have a lanai. Top rooms have large windows on 3 sides. Resort has a restaurant & ice cream/coffee shop. You can use the beach walk to go to Whalers Village. Probably take you about 20 minutes on foot. There are restaurants in the area, and Front Street is like 10-15ish minutes by car. Parking is $15/day self parking, or $20/day valet. Beach was really great, and wasn't crowded.

Depending on your budget, I really like Aston Maui Kaanapali Villas. It's several low-slung buildings of condos, and a small hotel tower (like seven stories or so). Very low density compared to the big resorts south of black rock. I really liked how it felt more laid back and less crowded than the big resorts. I never felt like I had to fight for a chair by the pool, etc. It has two pools, and a very nice beach right out front. There is a restaurant and bar on site, and you can easily walk to other hotels. AC will depend on the condo you rent. I think all the units have some sort of lanai. There is parking, and I think a free shuttle that goes along through the rest of Kaanapali and down to Lahaina.

Yes, there are hundreds of options you can sort through on www.homeaway.com. Have fun searching!

Have you checked with Elara? Its a hilton resort. I know they have some multi-bedroom rooms available.

As the other person mentioned Elara for sure. Also check Vdara (better location.. decent rooms). Additionally do MGM Signature, which allows access to MGM pool which is great (lazy river).

Trying to get 8 of you into the "same" room(s) on a Strip property will be a challenge. I love the Elara, but even there it will be difficult to do. Might mean people sleeping on sofa beds. Even then you are paying for 2-3 connected rooms, so won't be cheap. But do check it out. If you weren't locked into the Strip, I say look for a house for rent near the Strip. TripAdvisor has a section of Houses/Condo's for rent in Vegas. They cover everything form small houses to mansions. Good luck with your search and have a great time in Vegas!

no one has mentioned it but you could easily get 2 connected queen rooms, 2 to a bed. boom done. We've done it at quite a few spots. Pallazo might have been the best place to do it cause you can get 12 in there with the pullouts. Aria was a good place to get the conjoining rooms.

You could book a 2 bedroom suite at The Signature which is attached to The MGM. Go to homeaway.com and search for The Signature and enter in your dates. Prices usually run around 400-500 a night. The 2 bedroom fits 8 people just as long as you guys don’t mind sharing beds with one of your friends. You’ll get 3 bathrooms, 1 and a 1/2 kitchens, 2 king size beds, 2 pull out sofas, and a balcony.

Maybe try Inspirational Heights in Keene, NY. Nice view of the mountains, comfy chairs, fireplace, decent Internet, breakfast. Cozy home of extremely nice people Marie and Wes.

This is probably going to be an unpopular comment, but please don't do this. There's currently multiple covid outbreaks happening in the park and the numbers there look small but aren't small for the population and resources. A pandemic just isn't the time to come and lounge at a hotel. Please come back another time.

The golden arrow in lake placid has some great rooms on mirror lake and the golden arrow, the affiliated restaurant has great breakfast. But I’m not sure if it’s included. Lots of other good restaurants in town too.

I would do Airbnb if you can. That way you’re out of people’s way incase some are upset about the potential for you to spread virus to an under-resourced community. I’ve pretty much moved up to my Vermont home and I can confirm I get dirty looks from locals who think im just carelessly vacationing in the middle of a pandemic. So the cabin option or private residence might be better for you to not interact with others or unsettle anyone. ADK is THE spot though. Love it. Miss it.
