Accomodations

During the duration of our stay in London we plan on visiting 3 places. London, Paris & Amsterdam. I am not really sure how we came up with Paris and Amsterdam but that is what we decided. We have heard of how wonderful and beautiful Paris is and I have two friends who gave Amsterdam very high recommendations so we can just go with that. Jason's accommodations are pretty simple since he will be in a dorm at Oxford, but my accommodations seemed at the onset to be complicated. There is of course the option for our timeshare (well until we found out that July in London is high time and all the timeshares were taken. Jim (the RCI representative) assured me he would do all he could to call me if something came available but after a week I stopped holding my breathe. The next idea was a hotel of which was super expensive. In London the cheapest hotel was $89 dollars a day and that was in a not so safe neighborhood so that was out. The last option that we found most advantageous was staying in a dorm room too. We found many dorms that were willing to offer ASU alumni rooms at a very modest rate ($28-$32) dollars a day. All in all I was able to book my 2 week stay for under $500 dollars which works perfect for me. Its a room with a bed and desk and all I need. So there you have it. We are booked for the better part of our trip. Now we have to figure out is where we will stay while in Paris and Amsterdam. Any suggestions???
