Other Housing and Long-Term Accommodations

Users with other housing needs should contact their local host/contact for assistance with finding short- or long-term accommodation. The local contact will be able to provide information about the Berkeley area, transportation, school districts, shopping, etc. Other excellent sources for information about available housing in the Bay area include:

• The Rentals and Roommates section of Berkeley Lab's Classified want ads.
  
• The UC Berkeley Department of Housing and Dining Web site has extensive information about renting both short- and long-term in the Berkeley area. In addition, this site lists the locations and rates of local hotels and motels, several of which give discounts to UC Berkeley and Berkeley Lab staff and guests.
  
• The International House in Berkeley is an independent, non-profit organization with close ties to the University of California at Berkeley that can provide housing for scientists and students visiting at Berkeley Lab.
