How to find the ideal film crew accommodation in Uganda?

Often, most production companies prefer budget accommodation facilities as most of them have often emphasized that they work on a tight budget. Interestingly, regardless of your filming location, there are accommodation facilities for every film crew or production company.
- Filming location/destination

The accommodation facility you choose should be located in close proximity to the filming area. Long distant accommodation from the filming location may mean you will incur extra charges on transporting the crew to and back. Booking accommodation nearer saves you from this and also the time you could have wasted traveling from the hotel/lodge to the filming location. This time can rather be utilized filming.
