Question about off-campus housing

<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>I will be in Madison as a visiting scholar this spring. Since I could not get unverisity housing, I have to find somewhere off campus. Please tell me about any accommodation that you have past good experience with or heard or know of. Thanks a lot. </p>

<p>And this: an alumnus of mine, whom I do not know personally, intends to sublet his room in this</a> property to me. Does anyone know if it is any good? Would really appreciate your scoop :)</p>
