A crucial point: the hotel location
Downtown or suburbs?
If you are looking for a cheap hotel, you will find hundreds on the Internet. Yet a priori attractive prices may soon rise. The cheapest hotels are always located far from the center, often to the periphery. In this case, you will burden the freight bill you will have to pay to go to the center. We must also take into account the time necessary for the journey to and back! Evaluate well total cost, you might be surprised: a hotel downtown may never return no more expensive and you will save time otherwise wasted in transport.

Depending on the number of people taking part in the trip, a hotel downtown may even be more advantageous. Indeed, a double room is cheaper than two singles, and one pays for two people at a time while in transport, tickets to purchase is individual.

Also remember to check availability of vehicles in the vicinity of hotels and suburban periphery. You probably would not end up in a remote part of the periphery, without a bus on the horizon, the closest one kilometer of your foot to ground subway line. Then remain to estimate, even approximately, the average cost of the move. It will of course deal with your requirements or preferences: a taxi is much faster and more efficient than a bus, but it will cost a larger sum. There is no truth in the field, as the rates vary between cities, institutions and even transportation when the price of fuel fluctuates. Without spending your nights, still think twice about choosing your accommodation, because it is he who affects your well-being.

Locate the hotel
To locate your hotel, the online tool Google Maps is the best solution. Available in some cities, street view (integrated with Google Maps), you can stroll you "as if you were there" around the hotel. You can see the points of interest nearby: public transport, shops, ATMs or restaurants located nearby.

Be cautious vis-à-vis the floor price: for example, if you search online for hotels in New York, you will come across some really attractive prices. Yet look closer: the hotels are offered in New Jersey! Conclusive, this example invites you to start over twice before booking your eyes closed.

Opinions in support
For an interesting perspective, nothing beats the opinions of others, who will guide you effectively. Reviews are not always very objective, but is not that the interest to give expression to customers? This will give you a good overview of the actual situation, although some comments are sometimes taken lightly. The whole becomes more interesting when notices are mailed and that they agree more or less: you can then get a true idea of ​​the establishment.

The hotel and its surroundings
No matter where you go, check the conditions in the area around the hotel, especially if you plan to retire to your room late at night. So instead of you walking, prefer a shuttle or transit, if any in the vicinity. If applicable, two questions must come to mind: What is the frequency of passage (a summary sheet schedules should be stopped in question) of the shuttle and at what price sell tickets?

The "pick & drop"
Some hotels offer a service called "pick & drop". The term "pickup" refers to the transport from the airport or train station to the hotel, while the term "drop" simply means the opposite direction. Distant hotels of the stopping points have frequently such services free to boot. Some hotels offer transportation to check out, that is to say, out of the hotel for a nest egg.

Anyway, even if the facility is not near airports and other stations, choose a place that is close to area you plan to attend, rather than be in light years of attractions that tempt you.
