My son is going to Stuttgard from approx. 8th to 21st July 2008 and is struggling to find any accommodation near Schwaikheim. We have tried all youth hostels and cheaper accommodation, but no luck. Would any of you nice people be willing to put up with a well-mannered, nice young man on his first travels alone?

Please contact me under kat2u61@eject.co.za

Many thanks in advance,
Kathinka

Here are their offers for single rooms (in shared apartments) for Stuttgart: http://www.studenten-wg.de/angebote_lesen.html?fuer=Zimmer%20in%20WG&stadt=Stuttgart&PHPSESSID=3eded619e19e05feaccfde16c44f0210

You could also try Couchsurfing.
I think it should be pretty safe.

I would offer my spare bedroom, but well I don't live near Stuttgard.
