Where to find accommodation for a family in Hyderabad?

What I need to know to find good accommodation in Vancouver for two months?

• I am a foreign female student on a long-term vacation planning to visit Vancouver and to stay there for a couple of months. It will be my first time in the city and I really need your advice as to accommodation: 1. What neighborhoods in Vancouver are the best for living in terms of safety, closeness to “civilization”, transportation, and accommodation prices? 2. What are rental averages per month by housing styles and other accommodation in the offered Van neighborhoods (approximately)? 3. What accommodation/housing styles would you recommend to look for and why? 4. What should I be aware of looking for shared apartment (e.g. host, roommate, conditions, etc.)? 5. Am I eligible for Canadian student hostels without a student ID? 6. What web resources on accommodation in Van would you recommend me to browse? Please, tell me if there is something else important I need to know except the asked. Thank you a lot in advance!

• Answer:

  Accommodation is generally speaking more expensive the closer you are to downtown Vancouver and the South Granville area. The best websites to consult are Craigslist, Google Satellite map and Translink (the public transit system, including Skytrain and buses). Use the maps to familiarize with the various locations you see mentioned on Craigslist.
