Housing for travel nurses

[Lebi]

Hello, I recently got a job offer as a travel nurse @cleveland clinic on night shift. I have never been to Cleveland and I need help in getting a safe accomodation. Can anyone share safe options for accommodation. Are there good extended hotels or air bnb in Cleveland, Ohio? Thanks

You may want to move this to the travel nurse forum. I had several travel assignments. My agencies provided my accomodations.. I paid nothing. To give specific examples.. when I was working at the Mayo Clinic, I had a very nice apartment close to the hospital. When I was working in Honolulu.. I had a 19th floor condo on Waikiki beach.

There is no way I would work for an agency that did not provide free, safe accommodations.

The OP might be taking the housing stipend instead of having the agency provide the housing. You can make more money that way, because you can often find housing cheaper. The drawback to that, of course, is not knowing what are the safe places, as evidenced by the OP's question.

I've used the FB groups, "Rent to Travel Nurses and other travel professionals" and "Travel Nurse Housing-The Gypsy Nurse" when traveling out of state. There you can find everything from a single room rental to a whole place for yourself. Graig list is another option.

Congrats on your new assignment.

In my experience,  most travelers now take a housing stipend and get their own accommodations.

In my experience, the stipend was  not my main concern. I needed safe,nearby housing. I was new to the areas... did not know , what I did not know.  !00% percent sure, I would have never found a condo on Waikiki beach on my own. Let's wish the OP the best.
