NOLA

Hi Victor,

I’m checking with a couple of contacts to see if anyone can help you. You might check www.hostels.com, as well. That’s what I generally do when I’m looking for a cheap place to stay when I’m working somewhere. Apparently, at least one of the hostels down there has re-opened. As long as they’ve got a place to lock up your gear…



Will get back to you if I hear about anything else in the meantime. Hope you’re well.

Try the Wyndham its $190 a night,

$190???? yikes.   I went to NOLA on short notice during the Thanksgiving week.  Everything was sold out (used by FEMA and contractors) or simply closed.  I stayed in www.innonbourbon.com (it’s a Ramada hotel) which was about $109 per night.  I think it was a lot, but the city is very expensive to begin with.  I booked the room online thru hotels.com or Orbitz.  Try all the on-line services and call the major chains.  Unfortunately all the cheap motels type are closed.   The other hotels on Canal street where most people are staying are $190 range.   there is no life outside French Qrtrs, see if you can stay on the other side of the river, I think it is called Algier.  good luck.

I’m not sure if they’re open but check out the India House hostel at 504.821.1904; oct 2k4 it was $15 a night.

suerte
