Can someone please give some suggestions of reasonably priced places to stay while auditioning at Juilliard and Yale
Usually the most reasonably priced place near Yale is the LaQuinta. They have a shuttle van that can take you over to Yale and pick you up also. But if you have a car, there are more options outside of New Haven. Hotels in New Haven within walking distance of Yale are pretty pricey.
There are hotels that give special Juilliard rates–The Hudson comes to mind. I’m pretty sure you can get this information from the admissions office.
If you’re willing to try AirBnb, there are some great rates in Manhattan.
