Accommodation
This popular accommodation option is the ideal choice if you want to practise your English outside the classroom and learn about American culture and way of life first hand. Californians are known for their friendliness, hospitality and diversity – all of which is reflected by our hosts. A Residence Club is a type of economy- standard hotel for those staying a month or more. It is often a cheaper option than hotels, and in some cases will provide cooking facilities in the room or meals in a dining room. For students who wish to have independence, there is a host of hotels and residence clubs located in the heart of the city, within a 10-minute walk from the school and excellent shopping, restaurants, theaters, and other attractions.
