My advice is to go the Airbnb route, and try to room up with/near your classmates. Hopefully by the time you get here the costs will have come down out of the stratosphere.

You must be new to the 121 world! The only reason that matters 99.9% of the time is money.
Some pay for it all the way through training. Others pay for just indoc and makes you pay for it during aircraft training. Then, of course, there are the outliers that don't pay for any of it.
