Usually I am focused on the luxury segment, but for low budget traveling the Web can be a good source: Couchsurfing.com is a site in line with the current www hype: building communities. Couch surfers can get into contact with people who put a couch available for a stay for free on the understanding that everybody is willing to participate in the scheme. On this site couch surfers meet, discuss, get new contacts, organize meetings and give tips….
Other idea’s are house swapping and house sitting….just Google those terms.

Sleepover Suite
What’s that? An -of course- pink hotel suite where wild parties of your teener daughter can be hosted instead of at your home. The rooms are sound proof: Hard rock music or karaoke sessions don’t bother the other guests. A spacious walk in shower and ample make up facilities and -products are available and off the girls can go. Read more at Old Towers Time
