Place to stay nearby the University (440 Henry Mall)

Hi, I'm looking for a place to stay for whole August for my internship at biochemistry lab. Do you know of any places nearby, studenthouses etc. that have rooms avaliable? I've heard that it's very warm and humid in Madison, so I'd like to know if is it common to have air conditioning in a room in studenshouse? If you know anything, plese let me know. I'l be thankfull if you could help me in any way.

I did my undergrad at UW and never had AC haha you'll be OK. Finding a sublease through August will definitely be difficult due to switching over of leases aug 14 and 15. I'd say Craigslist is your best bet! If you have other questions about Madison just let me know!

I saw you were looking for a ride on CS. I’ve had a lot of luck posting my rides on Coride.co (www.coride.co) - its like the couchsurifing or Airbnb of rideshare.

There seems to be a lot of student housing near campus. Having just looked for an apartment Madison seems to be a tricky market especially around August. A lot of leases start mid-August. Someone recommended to me UW sublets or Madison Craigslist. I haven't tried either, and one must always be careful on Craigslist about false advertising and scams.

As for weather, once you reach this far north heat isn't too much of an issue. It hasn't been very hot this year, though a little humid and rainy. However I am originally from hot climates. Most older Mid-western houses do not have air-con for this reason. People just opened a window at night with the screen down.

Thanks! UW sublets seems promising, I'll give it a try.

You should check out the UW Sublets facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/284165505043431/?ref=ts&fref=ts

I found an apartment there for the summer and fall but also have used Craigslist before - just make sure you see the place and meet the roommates before signing and you should be fine.

Good luck!
