Make a Hotel reservation in advance

Once the travel dates are confirmed, see if the company you are visiting are providing accommodation for you. If not, book a star hotel for the entire duration of the stay.

Hotel must be with basic facilities like phone, Internet, Laundry, refrigerator, microwave oven etc as you will need them definitely.
