Housing Information

A summary of your accommodation information for your time in Jamaica is below!

Here are some general rules, tips, and expectations for your time abroad! **edit to cater to specific housing rules/guidelines for each CFLP**

Use common sense- rules that apply when you’re traveling in the U.S. still apply in Japan!

Noise:

In order to avoid disturbing other guests, please use headphones when listening to music, or keep the volume low, and please keep your voices down.

Utilities and use:

  • NEVER leave heating or air conditioning units while you are not in the room. If you must have them on when you are sleeping, keep them low.
  • Always turn off the lights when you leave your room.

Safety:

  • Keep your door locked at all times.  Neither the your university/CISabroad nor the the hotel will not be responsible for any stolen items.
  • It is strictly forbidden to throw any object or substance from windows, balconies, terraces or roofs. This includes keys, cigarette butts or anything else big or small.

Guests and Alcohol Policies:

  • Disrespectful behavior related to alcohol consumption will end up in dismissal from the group accommodations and you will have to find your own housing at your own expense.
  • The consumption of drugs, as well as keeping or dealing with them, is absolutely prohibited.

Financial Liability:

  • You will have to pay for any damage done to the accommodations (doors, walls, floors, furniture, etc.).

Helpful tips for living with other people:

  • Respect your roommate and other people staying at the hotel.
  • Remember that you are not on a college campus and not in your own home. Respect the property and get out of the “college campus” mentality.
  • Talk to the staff if a problem arises and you cannot work it out with your roommate.
