temporary accommodation in sydney

[scots]

:scrying:Hi, im looking for cheap accommodation for end of july near Royal North shore Hospital. I would like somewhere to stay whilst I find a permanant appartment. Im not really wanting to stay in back packing type of accommodation. If anyone knows of any where cheap n cheerful all appreciated. Im coming from Scotland and unsure where most nurses in my position stay. help help

If you check on lastminute you'll find a range of accomodation including guest houses (from $45 a night for a double room). Accomodation around RNS is really expensive, so you're almost certainly much better off living further away and commuting in. Good luck :)

Hi, thanks for the advice. Its a pity its so expensive there because I wanted somewhere close to work for 7am starts. cheers anyhow.

scots, there's an apartment building right near the hospital called; "the forum". my son lived there for a time. it has a swimming pool, gym etc inside the building. there are short term leases available from memory. you might even be able to share with someone already there who is looking for a flatmate. it's got an access to the hospital and the train stops right beneath the complex. there's shops and all kinds of other outlets, including food outlets.

I would recommend Glenferrie Lodge. Very reasonably price and short distances from the hospital. Quite a good option in term of price and facility. Find more on Agoda website - hotels in Sydney. They have wide range of options. I used their service before and never disappoint.
