Reply to comment by victorialucyt in Commuting from Philly insane or…? by grizzlby

All I'm saying is I know people that do it. There's some sort of net positive in it for them. Also, get in on a friend's and family discount and the hotel doesn't have to to be that bad. Some Hiltons I go to are ~$60 a night with it.

The only affordable hotels within commuting distance to Stamford are not great to bordering dangerous. Not like ‘you will definitely get shot/robbed’ but… there’s a decent chance someone might.

We have people coming into Stamford internationally a lot to visit and some of the people come from rougher countries. A small group from Colombia came to visit and stayed at La Quinta in Stamford. They were sure it would be fine, they’re from Bogota, so not strangers to crime, they changed hotels and told us we were right for having warned them not to stay there.

CT is pretty insanely safe by any standard, so it’s not horrific, but it’s definitely better to not stay at any hotel that isn’t 90+ a night, really 150 is probably the bottom for Stamford.
