unless you want to end up staying in a place like surrey or chilliwack, 50 bucks is the cheapest you are going to get. Typical vancouver place costs 100-120 a night, with the cheapest places tending to be about 75 bucks. - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 2:34am

Actually I think the cambie is 18.50 for a group or doorm room and 20.00 for a double room. (thats per person) + tax.
And yeah they're nothing more then a bed to crash out on but its not bad, I stayed there when I went to NMW. - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 11:31am

Just steal a dirty blanket from a junkie and sleep on the street (although in Vancouver that will probably still cost you something) Vans slogan should be "Vancouver: We're all a bunch of overtaxed losers." - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 12:36pm

haha, indeed. A bunch of us did that after the Cryptopsy/Dimmu show back in April. We wandered into town after getting fucked up at the Cambie after show, then we hung out at the Denny's downtown and me and Lindsay and Spencer all fell asleep at the table It was warm inside, though my neck hurt from sleeping weird. then these guys from Sweden who were at the show came and sat with us, then they continued to quote Arnold movies for the next hour. You always met fun people when you stay up! - Tue, 10 Sep 2002 2:57pm
