Is renting a short-term apartment/condo better than using a hotel for a 5-day stay? |
Travel Info Hi Guys, A friend and I are planning a 5-day trip to Montreal. From booking web sites, it would cost us each about $500-$600 for a decent hotel (3-star or above) in a decent area. So, I am thinking about renting a short-term aparment/condo. From my research, I can rent it for a week for same price (or cheaper) with hotels. Renting an apartment seems much better since you could get a bigger place (2 bedrooms, a ketchen, and a fireplace) Local calls are also free... Since I am new to traveling, I have questions about short-term apartment. 1.) It is just like me renting a long-term apartment, right? I can go places or have friends vist me at any time during my stay, right? 2.) What kind of contract do I need to sign? Is this too risky since I don't know any French? 3.) Are there more hidden fees that I should know about? 4.) Could you recommend me good apartment for rent that you know? Any pros and cons of both choices would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Travel Tips 5 Days isn't really worth renting a condo/apt there are good hotels with reasonable prices or furnished apts. contracts: I don't advise for 5 days But this site will give you all the insights on short-term. Hidden fees : usually Deposits depends on the landlord or middle man ( in this case a rental office ) check the sites below for references.

Other Travel Tips I don't know, but I can tell you that you can normally ask for a contract to be in English, as long as it includes a clause that says both parties specifically request the contract to be in English. Hey there, I would think that an apartment hotel would be a good option. you can use most of them as you would a longer term rental. As long as you don;t annoy neighbors etc. Most would be 2 bed or 1 bed with a futon/pull out bed in a living area and most would have cooking facilities. I would not worry too much about the language. Most people in the service industry will be able to understand you. You however may not understand them. There should not be any hidden fees etc This is one website I found but you can probably find more. This is very central. http://en.lacite.com/accueil.aspx... I don't have any to recommend personally however. Enjoy your stay..... http://www.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&q=apa... the apartment thing is way cheaper you can find them and thier pricing on travelocity...a five day stay in an apartment is about 600 canadian and a hotel well it comes with the luxury but can be more costly. you may want to stay at a bed and breakfast facility and do your research in the public library.
