Grateful for sites like these
If your short on time to find a place Spare Room is the place to go. Not only can you look for rooms but people can find you after you set up a profile. Security is the best feature. I was contacted by a "realtor" and they figured out it was a scam before I even realized it was. So grateful for that. Best of all no fees to contact people unlike other sites.

This is the second time around I have used SpareRoom and found a roommate both times successfully. It took a little longer time this round (about 3 weeks as opposed to 1 week) but both times a great fit. Also I enjoyed the roommate mixer a lot and think it is brilliant to throw.

Spareroom really broke down and listened to what I the customer was looking for exactly and gave me that usually people get your money and do things the way they want to what happen to the customer is always right Spareroom honors that fact and didn't over complicate the process moving is already stressful enough I would highly recommend Spareroom to any one.
