Lodging
If you’re looking for a last minute hotel, planning out a week long stay or just need a quick place to crash, these apps help you find somewhere safe to sleep.
Airbnb: With this app you can rent out an entire house/apt., shared room or a private room. I’d recommend this for a longer stay, but even if it’s a short trip its nice to stay in a home over a hotel. Free
Hotel Tonight: Offers a list of hotels that are nearby and available that day/night. The app shows pictures, ratings, amenities and more things you’d want to know about a hotel. Free
Couchsurfing: Find someone who is willing to lend his or her couch to you. When you download the app, a list of people appears with a short bio and expectations. You can request a stay with whomever you’d like. Free
