a) Deciding where to stay when on holiday is not always easy. It depends on personal preference and of course on what you can afford. By far the most expensive accommodation is a luxury hotel or a five-star hotel. The price of a hotel room will also depend on whether it is a double room or single room, whether it has an en suite or whether you will need to share the bathroom with other guests.
b) You will find that self-catering apartments are a good option if you’re not travelling alone. They come equipped with kitchens, which means you can save money by cooking and eating in rather than eating out in restaurants.
c) If you don’t mind roughing it, then staying in a tent on a campsite is a good option. Of course, this is not an option if you’re visiting a city. The cheapest accommodation in a city is usually a youth hostel, but they offer very few services. You will also need to take a sleeping bag. It may be better to pay a little extra and book a room in a guesthouse. They are more personal and offer bed and breakfast at lower rates than hotels.

Public transport is very popular where I live. Most people use buses and minibuses because they are cheap and convenient. I usually get around by bus or on foot, and sometimes by taxi if I am in a hurry.
My favourite means of transport is the train because it is comfortable and I can relax during the journey. My least favourite is the bus in rush hour because it is crowded and slow.
I think the safest means of transport is the train, because it is controlled, stable and there are fewer risks than on the road.
