Hi,

Priceline is aweoms for funding a hotel room for a night. They have tons of tools for comparison shopping. In adition to priceline you can take a risk sites like istopover and possibly find a room to rent in someone’s house. But i’m looking to rent a furnished room for a longer stay than that.

I once found a red roof inn in California where I rented their room for about $300 a week. Another place I found was a furnished room one bedroom in Vegas right near the strip that I rented for $140 a week. Both of them I found only by having stumbled upon them. comparison shopping wouldn’t have shown me either of them.

Craigslist of course has reams and reams of rooms and apartments, furnished and unfurnished that are available for short or long stays but searching Craigslist is like searching the wild west. It totally sucks. There’s no easy comparison shopping going on there at all.

Now yes, I understand that Craigslist is mostly comprised of individuals rather than businesses and thus you’re likely to get a better deal than if you rent a furnished room or furnished apartment from a business that does it, but, for me at least, it’s almost useless. I want to be able to decide that I’m going to be staying in the French Quarter of New Orleans for a month and to see a few options of where I could stay folr that month at affordable rates.

Does anything like this exist?

Where does priceline meet craigslist so that I can search by location and find great deals for a furnished room or apartment that I could rent by the week or by the month?

Thanks a million, guys and gals!

Dolores

* Never hold me down* asked:


Ok i asked a question about New York the other day and the answers were fantastic!

However what i didnt find out is what is the shopping like?
Is it all very expensive designer stuff?
Will i be able to come home with lots of cool stuff with $1600 ?
How is it in comparison to London?

Also im still struggling for where to stay.
Preferably i wanna stay in Manhattan, but i dont want to pay a fortune!
I just want somewhere clean and comfy to crash at the end of the day.

And finally any advice on flights?? (I’ll be leaving from London)
Does anywhere have a sale on flights soon??
