General Housing Information
The Housing Connection
The Housing Connection is the ONLY AAPM/COMP-designated housing provider for our Meeting. If you are approached by any company other than The Housing Connection regarding hotel rooms in Vancouver, please be aware that they have no relationship with AAPM/COMP. You put yourself at financial risk if you provide them your credit card information. To report housing fraud, please contact Karen.
Roommate Search BBS
Interested in sharing costs with a roommate? Sharing a hotel room at the conference can stretch your budget and make your travel expense more affordable. Check out the AAPM/COMP Roommate Search Bulletin Board for a potential hotel roommate to save on hotel costs.
While AAPM will monitor content on the Roommate Search BBS, AAPM is not ultimately responsible for content posted by others, or for decisions individuals make based on the content. Please use prudence.
