Lodging

Three hotels are located within easy walking distance of the Core Lab. If you have a car, it's best to leave it at the hotel and walk to/from the lab each day.

Rooms at these and other, more distant hotels (most of which offer free shuttle service to campus) are available at University contract rates. For a complete listing and current prices, visit the University-Wide Contracts web pages; enter "lodging" in the search box. Contact the hotels directly to make reservations. LacCore staff can call hotels to verify contract status if necessary.

University Visitor Housing
The University Housing web pages provide links and information for several low-cost, nearby housing options for visiting faculty, staff, and students. In particular, look at the links for "Short-Term Off-Campus Guest Housing", "Guest of Faculty or Staff Housing", and (if appropriate) "Summer Guest Housing". Lab visitors have used several of these options, including the Brekke House, Historic Faculty House, and Wales House (all in the short-term link), and summer housing in University dormitories.
