Budget Travel: Saving Money on Accommodation

It is possible to save money on accommodation. Just follow these tips and tricks and you'll be amazed.

Make A Reservation Directly With The Hostel

If you are planning to stay in a hostel, think about making your reservation directly with the hostel rather than through a third party. Hostelworld is amazing, but it is not the most cost-effective choice. By making a direct reservation, the hostel will save 15 to 25 % of the fee and you will pay less for your stay. Another benefit of this is that by booking directly through the hostel, rather than through a third party, there are better cancellation policies and customer service.

Use Airbnb

Airbnb gives a 47 $ discount to first-time users, which is excellent news! Another reason to try Airbnb is that it gives weekly and monthly discounts for guests who stay for longer periods. This platform also gives priority to and rewards long-term Airbnb clients, such as weekly and monthly clients.

Consider House Sitting

In recent years, house sitting had grown in popularity, especially with amazing websites such as MinyMyHouse and Trusted Housesitters that connect you with potential house sitters. The majority of people looking for house sitters need someone to take care of their animals while they are away on vacation. Thus, you have a chance to have a new furry friend and enjoy almost free housing! The best step to take is surely to register with a house-sitting website and pay a small fee to show your seriousness about wanting to look after someone's home.
