Myrtle Beach Accommodation for 20 Year Olds

My daughter and two friends (all aged 20) are British University Exchange Students hoping to work in Myrtle Beach this summer.

We tried to book a hotel for them yesterday until they can find work (with or without accommodation) and were amazed to find that there is apparently local legislature banning under 21 year olds in hotel accommodation unless they are accompanied by someone of 21 or over.

If they do find work without accommodation will they also have a problem renting an apartment as 20 year olds?

The girls will be using public transportation as they do not have a car.

Please can anyone come up with a solution to the dilemma of where they can stay until they find work?

Thank you for any help and advice you can give!

Myrtle Beach Accommodation for 20 Year Olds

I know when students come from some other countries through an agency that facilitates the J1 visas and interacts between employer and potential employee they often make arrangements of some kind.

Don%26#39;t know how it goes if the student is looking on his/her own.

I checked on NC and SC forums and you might buzz over to the SC forum and do a word search in the little empty box directly atop these posts. Put in just J1. You can organize by date which is handier. There were responses that came up, I think most from Myrtle Beach, in SC. Didn%26#39;t see any in NC.

While people often go to Myrtle Beach from NC, it is in SC and if you go directly to the Myrtle Beach forum you might get some answers directly from people who have hired/housed what are often called ';J1s';, the summer employees that keep things going. (that%26#39;s a J and the numeral one)

I appreciate your help very much and will check this out.

I am also blushing that I got my North and South Carolinas mixed up. Oh the embarrassment!

No wonder I couldn%26#39;t find any info....

My warmest thanks!
