Car
Parking spaces are limited around the Casa d’Italia, so plan your trip accordingly if traveling by car! You can also pay your parking meter through the P$ mobile service mobile app.
Housing
Because of local restrictions, there are no hotels in the MTL BAL JAM neighborhood. As such, you may consider other neighborhoods closer to downtown if you want to rent a room or a hostel. However, you can look on housing websites such as couchsurfing.
