You save money

Booking a PG early has the same benefit as booking tickets for a concert. If you don’t get the early bird tickets, you end up paying more. That too, in the last row of the venue. So the same goes for PGs. You don’t want to pay 30% more for the same room as your PG mate, do you? That’s like you and your classmate copying answers from the same person but getting terribly different marks in the end. Ouch.

You get to pick your preferred room

You know what’s worse? Having to settle for a below-average PG. Or the least-desirable room in your preferred PG. One that has bad ventilation without any window in the room. But if you enquire early and book, you obviously get to pick the best ones out of the options available. So it’s kinda like getting to the penultimate question in KBC and still having a lifeline left to use.

No last-minute hassle

Apart from money and the luxury of choice, think about the convenience. Would you prefer landing up in the new city and directly moving into your room from the airport? Or would you rather crash at a friend’s place – or hotel – and then run around your campus to search for a PG hostel? The answer’s obvious. So do what you gotta do.

You find it easier to settle in

This is basically the sum total of the benefits we’ve mentioned above. So booking your accommodation early is like preparing for a test ahead of time. And guess you’re well-aware about the benefits of that. No last-minute anxiety. No skipping chapters for revision. And definitely less pressure for your brain to store more info in less time. So just like that, book your PG early and you go out to explore the new city right from day one.
